There are two Carrara tutorials on their site [IK Chains & Animating arms] that are a pain to watch on the screen since [on my machine] the bottom half of the tutorial is off the screen. And there's no scroll bars. So I downloaded both, unzipped them, and now what? Quicktime won't open them. Windows Media Player won't. I thought maybe they downloaded as stills. Tried Carrara, Photoshop and MS Word. Nothing. Can't get a response from Eovia.

Anybody out there tried this?

It works o.k. in Explorer (Mac OS 9.x). Unzip with MacZip 1.07, use 1024X768 screen. After starting anim_IK_viewlet.html, it runs automatically. Mac Runtime Java 2.1.4.

The 1024x768 setting is the key. Unfortunatly, not everyone is able to go there. A failure on the part of the web designers.

Aha! Well...I just watched a few more times and took notes. It's the long way around, but, hey!! Thanks for the responses.
