         LSX MPEG Encoder (avi => mpg)


CREATION TIME: 

        many evenings and nights for working out
        less than one week for rendering (400x300)

ANIMATION DESCRIPTION: 

        Unfortunately, I have nothing to say about the anim's "world".


VIEWING RECOMMENDATIONS: 

        This is a CYCLIC animation, so turn on looping/repeating


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS ANIMATION WAS CREATED: 

        I've took a paper and a pencil, and I've done it.
Creating it without macros would be much more difficult than with.
Look over source file and look at usage of 'SubPhase01' macro.

        First time I've made 400x400 mpg and I've sent it to IRTC, but it was
not accepted. So I've rescaled my existing AVI into 320x240 (I've deleted TGA
files and I had no time to render it again in 320x240). Finally the quality
of the b_juicef.mpg is not excellent (texts are unreadable).
