Hi MelloYello -
LightWave 3D is dedicated animation software. PowerDirector
isn't. PDR 13 has no facility to do anything like what LightWave can do.
If your purpose is to render the pre-compiled animations into a compatible video format (or the individual frames) to then import into PDR 13 for further editing, no problem. Separate layers cannot be imported & edited in PDR.
So - your workflow won't be much different to the one you've been using with PDR 10.
Carl - I think this is a question about what
PDR can do,
not about either how to use LightWave or comparing the products.
Cheers - Tony
P.S. I've never used LightWave, but I've watched a few tutorials.
