I don''t see my system being very slow... Its a P2-500 with 128 MB of RAM... I know it''s not much for modeling but unfortunately, it''s what I have. Anyway, I get some objects on the screen... let''s say for example, I''m building a space scene which has the following objects: * Standard Cylinder x 2 * Standard Tube transformed into a NURB and modified slightly x 2 * Standard Sphere transformed into a NURB and modified elongated * Standard Sphere Half Hemisphere x 2 * Standard Cylinder transformed into a NURB and modified x 2 * 2 Capsules * 2 Standard Torus * 3 Standard Spheres 1/4 hemisphere * 1 Box * 1 Box transformed into a NURB for a round bottom * 11 Object Groups Consisting of * 1 Sphere 1/2 hemisphere * 2 Standard tubes * 2 Standard Boxes Multiply that by two... (two objects that contain those objects) My PC is dragging by now... any ideas what I am doing wrong? Is it normal or is it the way I am creating the objects? Am I using too many NURBS? This is for a stillshot but I hope to get it to be an animation soon... however it is just TOO slow to animate. (Click... drag......... .... Click............) Anyway, Thanks for the help. I''m sure I''ll have a lot more questions soon. E.D.
