Default Re: Learning Lightwave

Thanks bro.

It's fun to build. I really like the tools in Lightwave, they seem more intuitive than in trueSpace. I can do so many things I couldn't before. I especially love the ability to select and triangulate non-planar faces. If I had those in trueSpace, I had to go and manually triangulate them or triangulate the whole object, creating unnecessary polygons. Plus, I love the step-by-step tutorial, it really helps to get used to the tools in LW. I did have to do a few things differently, mostly just slight changes to how much I had to stretch some of my stuff on the BC Deck, because I'm using Sinclair's blueprints instead of Casimiro's. But, it was simple enough to change the stretch amounts.
