It depends on what operating system you're using combined with how AS Pro was compiled. You need a 64 bit operating system to access more than 4Gb of RAM, 32 bit OS's such as Windows XP can have a maximum addressable limit of 4Gb. Similarly, if a 32 bit compiler was used to create the program (a com...

I agree with mkelley - AS is the way to go for anybody who hasn't done any animation before. Like others, I've got both packages and would agree that TB is more geared towards traditional animation whereas AS allows you to get started fairly quickly (although I'd also agree with plenty of up-front p...

I use ASP 5.5 with Wacom Volito on a PC running XP Home sp2 and the combination works fine.

Re: Make something like Pixar Cars...

There's quite a bit you could do to investigate 3D without going to a great deal of expense. Daz Studio is available for free from http://www.daz3d.com There's also a free Personal Learning Edition of Vue that should be downloadable from the web site http://www.e-onsoftware.com Turbo Squid is also a...

As a member of the British Computer Society I was able to buy the student version of Macromedia Studio a few years ago, installed it and tried to use it. Subsequently, it was uninstalled after failing to climb the learning curve and I don't miss it. I've had ASP for a while now but still consider my...

I've got an old version of Corel Draw and have dabbled with Flash (too complicated) and Illustrator (also too complicated). In the end, I found it easier to work with ASP rather than learn another work flow. So, after a while I was finding that I could do much more with ASP than I could with the oth...

Mohlar Greetings from West Yorkshire.... This is how I would use Anime Studio to produce an animation with voice track and then add SFX/Music. Anime Studio only supports a single track of audio so I'd use this for lip-synching using Papagayo (the sound track being recorded using freeware Audacity as...

The advice to use a video editor to add audio is valid but there's one thing that I'm not sure about - and that's lip synching with, say, Papagayo. I would imagine that the single track of audio within AS would be used to provide the "voice track" to use with Papagayo. That means that the ...

I've got 'em both too and the pre-release upgrade price of $80 was too much of a temptation to resist. But, saying that, I find ASP much easier and intuitive to use. As a newbie, I realised early on that TBS catered for the trad animator while ASP had (IMHO) far better drawing tools - although some ...

Not a coincidence but somebody with a beef about CP which is what prompted to register and reply. I've been buying 3d content since 2005 and just got ASP last year so I've been lurking for quite a while. Thing is.... This forum grew out of the support for Moho. It is vibrant and supportive.

Yep - I hate it too. And I have complained about the performance to the support guys a number of times without, it appears, much success. Yes - it is far too engineered with roll-over images and all sorts of stuff going on in the background. I've compared it with other 3d content sites (DAZ3D and Re...
