That way, for example, if I want to make a crowd of 3D people marching, or huge fleet of battleships, I don't need to render them all at once, but 10, then 10, then 10 (with various distance), and compose them over each other.
And the other importang thing, I'd like to do (don't know if it's possible) is a simple color correction. Some brightness, contrast, simple color balance, maybe additive mode (for particles). Maybe I am asking much.
I can do all that in After Effects, with lightwave render passes

But I would feel bad if I do it, because it's not an Amiga app, and it would be cheating (imho).

That's exactly how they did it back in the B5 days when they did not have much RAM to load many objects at once.

One would start by rendering the first scene to serve as Background, and keeping Camera and Lights information intact, you unload everything else while loading and placing the next 'layer' of ships, and so on...

I've started using deluxe video to stitch animations together with sound, it does allow for multiple timelines/events but I don't know if it will take alpha channels to multi-layer things After FX-style. I'm only starting out on that one.

Marchie, this Deluxe Video, is it an Amiga program? I cant find it by this name...

Deluxe Video is a Amiga program.

Sorry Maudib, was slow to check the thread again - yes, it's from EA, a 'sister program' to Deluxe Paint, you can even load Dpaint animations into it as video and sync them to sound, although the last time I did it my Dpaint anim had palette cycling which Deluxe Video doesn't support, so the colours went a bit crazy...

I can't find it anywhere... Any clues where to look?

Hi folks,

I need some help with the new domain name for the Amiga Raytracing Society site. Here are some ideas:

Amigaraytracingsociety.net. /.org
Ars.net /.org
Amigarays.net /.org
Amigaraytracers.net /.org

Let me know what you think or feel free to post your own!

My vote would be Amigaraytracers.net/.org, it's enough to say what the site is while keeping it short and simple.

I bought an old set of disks off Amibay. I think I've seen a spanish-language version on the eab file server.

As for web addresses, I like AmigaRays myself...

Hey 3D junkies, FINALLY finished my video on modelling and setting up a character in LW on Amiga, hope you like it!

Nice video. Are there any tutorials for building and animating characters in Lightwave. I want to try implementing a Lightwave created character animation into my 3D game engine.

I found this tutorial on Skelegons. Anything similar to this? [ Show youtube player ]

Hello guys, greetings from California. I hope is not a problem to revive a thread that was active a few months ago... new guy here.
I am trying to get back into doing 3d stuff. My A 3000 wont boot anymore so I am trying to get a Raspberry Pi going, which is becoming a GREAT learning experience. Once I get it going I hope to get some cool 3d work going. I went through all the message son this thread and it is really cool to find people that share my same interests. I hope to be able to contribute in some way soon. :-) At one time I was an advanced 3d user, I am hoping to get to just 'functional' for now.

Muadib · 19 February 2019, 21:25

Hi Feo,
Welcome back to the Amiga 3D world! There are a lot of talented people in electronics to help you revive your Amiga, if you 're up to it.
RPi is also a great platform to run an Amiga emulation. Read about Amiberry, if you haven't stumbled upon it yet.

Feel free to ask and share your experiences!

Last, I would like to point you and all here that I am *almost* done with launching a new forum I had mentioned before, dedicated to Amiga Raytracing called Amigaraytracers.com. There we will be sharing resources, tutorials and collaborating projects.
Please feel free to check it out

Again, welcome back!

Wellcome Feo

I know it was probably interesting to read all the thread, but it is even more interesting when you try and play with Lightwave 3D (or whatever app you choose).
I have no time to play last few months, but will try to be back as soon as possible.

Muadib was always of great help, and I don't know person more experienced (and with better results) in 3D on Amiga. We are lucky to have him here.
But, you should always try to beat him with the quality of your renders.
I sure tried (and still breathing dust from the ground), but I won't give up!

Muadib · 20 February 2019, 10:13

@D4rk3lf Thanks man, but I am not that good... And I 'm lucky that you all are here, otherwise I would have given up, I guess! :blush:

It 's all about practice, really. Only though it you start get the feel of it. And working on the Amiga really helps! The greatest creativity machine ever!

FYI, another interesting link for Lightwave and all collected plug-ins:
http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=67624

BTW, I mentioned pgovotsos and emufan for their contributions at Amiga Ireland 2019 where I talked about pgovotsos's digitization efforts as well as emufan's plugin collection efforts.

You can watch it here (at around 3:29:00):
