I have to walk before I run...I will be exploring the animation end, Thanks again for the tip, they look very interesting, especially the Tank and Belt plug-ins.

May this can interest you also; (export to Google Sketchup from Moi in 3ds format)
Google Sketchup has "Physics engine" inside so you can make some pedagogic animations!
like this one (sorry the SKP file model is not more availabe ( I ask to the autor to reput it)
Ok it's available now ! :) (post 2) http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=78&p=49813
Of course for see it in movment you must have Google Sketchup and Sketchyphysic2 (all is free) http://sketchup.google.com/ http://code.google.com/p/sketchyphysics2/
Of course the little colors icons can be hidden on the model during the animation!
And you can Zoom, move rotate during the animation or change anything!
Amazing!
And of course directly to render in Podium the more easy render :) http://www.suplugins.com/
Thanks for the link Frenchy Pilou, that is very nice stuff...I did not know that Sketchup had such an active user base, or plug-ins of this caliber.
