I'm just honoring Drexler's request for reposts.

As for what I thought they used, I would have thought they'd migrated to one of the other industry standards, like many of the SFX houses have...

Lightwave *is* the FX standard program. Foundation Imaging used LW on Babylon 5 and Star Trek, as did EdenFX, and when Zoic was formed after FI went bye-bye, they used LW on the nuBG, of which Blood and Chrome is

The other commonly used program is Maya.

Okay, okay. I was under the impression that most of the FX houses had migrated to other platforms.

I stand corrected.

I saw it. Thanks!

Also, check out my "24th Century House" photo album over there (it's public, so it should be viewable by anyone). It's the closest I've ever come to Sean Robertson's quality...
