If I have a wind turbine model in Maxwell Studio and I just want to simply animate the rotation of the blades, is there any way to animate this other than me manually turning the blades a bit at a time and clicking render each time? I can only use Studio, not any other animation software.

The only other way I can think of doing it would be to write a python script which would read the MXS, find the objects you want rotated (well, transformed -- there's no rotate function, as such), rotate them about the axis you want, write an MXS, rotate them a bit more, write an MXS, and so forth. You'd then batch render the resulting files. In other words, doing it manually was probably the right choice in this case. If you had to rotate a thousand windmills, then the script could be worth writing.
Will there be a Maxwell Render 6 ?

Let's be realistic. What's left of NL is only milk[…]
