thanks for explaining that. yes i do keep backups on external drives besides the raid,which is mirrored.
Another thing: why when AE starts up does it say ‘2% of 4gb of ram used’ when i have 12 gb of ram. I’m using windows 7 64 bit with 12 Gb ram and i7 8 core.
And finally, what about the scratch drive? i keep my footage of the e drive and will render out to the d drive. where does scratch fit in to all this?
thanks for your patience…

can you be a bit more specific? how do i get them to fall to create a mountain shape when they pile one on top of another? do i need dynamics for that?

Thanks yet again! That worked. But it took me a long time to find the right drag number. (It was 3500 in the end). Is there a quick method to finding what the “right” drag number will be? And why isnt it just the inverse of the gravity number?
It also took me a long time to set each cubical drag object up to be at the same location as the lego piece. Is there a quicker way to setting each drag box to be at the same location as its lego piece, other than cutting and pasting the X,Y, and Z positions.
The whole process was so tedious. I dont think i would have done it had i known it was going to take so long!

i now have eight pieces of lego, each with a dynamics tag and within one big solver object. how do i get each piece of lego to drop at a different point in time. i tried keyframing their masses to all be set to zero at the start of the timeline and then one by one change to 100, but for some reason that didnt work.
What should my workflow be?
