wish i could help you out... i've had the same problem.. can't get past frame 2... after many suggestions of different things to try.. nothing has worked.. and all i have is the swift file... still haven't been able to render, a image with 6500 polygons (not much, ravid "handles" 25-30k)... but i think my problem might be what the pope said about a line being in front of another, but there is nothing i can do about that, cause it's an animation, won't that always happen???

good luck.. (I need some too...)
