duuuuh, it’s sometimes the simple things that solve a complicated problem, i guess. i thought i did copy everything, but after your post, Rodi, i thought i should maybe do it again … and now it works perfect again! thanks for … whatever.

for all of you reading this thread, interested in pixar typestry, i’ll post a mail i got from pixar’s customer support:

> No, Pixar never did sell the rights to Typestry to anyone.
> It was simply discontined, and suppport stopped one year
> later.
>
> I will agree with you that it was a fabulous product, but
> Pixar restructured at that time, and moved out of PC and Mac
> products to concentrate on movies, and high end rendering
> software.
>
> We’re glad that you enjoyed the product. Most reviews, and
> responses from customers was overwhelmingly positive.
>
>
> Thanks,
> Pixar Customer Support

Did You install Typestry from disks? I think if you copied from your older computer, it may not include all the stuff (Real Technical, huh?) that it needs, like Pixar Stuff, in the System folder. I use Typestry on an Imac w/9.1. no problemol

Hi Simon,
It is interesting, however that you can go to:

www.valisgroup.com

they have the Looks CD, which contains about 2/3-3/4 of the original Pixar Looks CD and shaders. They also sell Mac RenderMan with Pixar Show Place. You Might want to check them out.

Merry Christmas,

Rodi

I would like to purchase a copy of Pixar Typestry. Any thoughts on where it can be bought used.
