You’re right about posting my solution and what you said is exactly what I did. C4D is really pretty straight-forward for a 3D program and is allowing me to figure out quite a bit on my own.

Never mind… I figured it out.

Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll have a look.

I’m glad to know it’s not just me! With AE 6.5 it worked, so it must be some sort of AE 7 issue. When I upgrade to CS3 in the future (not yet – can’t afford it yet with the entire collection) it will be interesting to see if the problem’s been fixed.

I tried that but it doesn’t work on my machine in Win XP. Strange…

I’m using the cut and paste system for now. It’s working.

Thanks for all the replies.

Thanks for the suggestion. Problem solved!!!!

Yes, that’s what I mean. It’s the timing issue that’s eluding me… I figure I can get some sort of rapid heat generator, but how do I time it to the video and sound. A pressure generator would be nice too, but that REALLY eludes me – even Google is having trouble with that one!

Thanks Aharon. I have and use Particle Illusion 3.0 – should have mentioned it in my post!

When I was talking about heat and pressure, I meant literally making users feel heat and pressure to go along with the video simulation. Since this will be at a trade show, I can’t get too far fetched, otherwise the show’s management will have safety concerns.

Never mind… I found a website with instructions…

I’m sure there are other sites, but this one gave me what I needed.

Oops… I forgot to mention, I’m on WinXP Pro and AE 6.5 PB…
