      No "FlyerClips" Option on Record or Image Panels

Product: Lightwave, Flyer

Platforms: All

Problem: No Option to save FlyerClips on Record Panel, no option to load FlyerClips on the Image panel.

LightWave has to have the correct plug-in loaded to be able to save an animation in FlyerClip format, or use a FlyerClip as an image map. That plug-in is "ClipSaver.p" on the Amiga, and "Flyrclip.p" on other platforms, for LightWave versions 4.0 through 5.6. No Flyerclip plugin has been issued yet for the 6.x version of LW.

Check to see if the plug-in is loaded. If not, then load the plug-in from directory NewTek/Plugins/LightWave, using the Add Plugins option in Layout. If you cannot locate the plugin in your installed directory, then you may need to copy it over from the LightWave CD, and then add it.

After the plug-in is loaded, the user will see a "FlyerClip" selection in the Animation Type pop-up selector on the Record panel in Layout. A "FlyerClip" button will be present on the Image panel.
