Blender Basics 4 Teaser

[0gnaws0]

I got my copy 5 minutes after being notified of the release. John's 'Bits of Blender' are solid gold!!

btw - I experienced a slow d/l too. Worth the wait tho. Already looking forward to the next one! =]

@0gnaws0 Thanks! Regarding the download speed, was it a slow download (server/bandwidth) or was it the size of the file? In the past I've broken the lesson into several parts. For this lesson I did two things different: 1) I kept it as one piece (seems more convenient) 2) I increased the frame rate of the recording (so the filesize for 3 hours is bigger than previously). All other settings are the same (I use H.264 best quality, multi-pass).

Hey John - It was a slow d/l. I downloaded it on the same T1 line I've used in the past for comparably sized files.  This one took a bit longer to complete. No worries tho.

@0gnaws0 I did a test and was getting 1.5MB/sec. Justin did a test yesterday and was also getting 1.5MB/sec, but on a another test today was getting 500-800KB/sec. He's looking into it.

PLEASE don't go to all this trouble for me. I'm not complaining, just verifying what LeviFiction mentioned earlier.

Bought it a few minutes after getting the CartoonSmart email. Still downloading though. This hosting service is slow.

Oh well, thank you for more awesome tutorials. :D Always appreciated.

Thanks LeviFiction! (and I'll let CartoonSmart know it is going slowly, normally it is pretty fast)
