Excellent work with your latest movie! When you get a chance, can you please explain exactly how you use the state machine controller and particle effects for this? In detail, for the less talented? I took a look at the dials in the stock "S" boat command room interior last night, and I have some S3ditor familiarity but I was stumped as to what you have been doing. Really hoping to bring some Germaniawerft & MAN diesels to life. Thanks!
