That's right. I knew it was Francois or Francis but couldn't remember his last name. P.S.

Re: SI|3D Flashback
One of my favourite underrated but powerful tools back in the day was +Replace. It was one of the Pison tools I think. It just let you swap out objects' geometry but keep all their parameters. It felt like magic when I discovered it. Stupid really looking back. Wasn't Halfdan originally one of the developers at Pison? I remember watching chinny do that plunger/quickstretch demo live at the CG expo they used to put on at Wembley. It really stuck with me for some reason. He kept saying "spiff spaff spoof". I can still picture it vividly. DAN Sent from my phone... On 11 Nov 2016 6:31 pm, "Sven Constable" wrote: > Hey list, > > > > a demo by Chinny and he's talking about some plugins.
