Most of the tutorials in this volume require you to load sample files to start and complete the lessons. These files do not install automatically on your local drive when you install Autodesk VIZ. All the files for these exercises can be found on the product disc. In order to do the tutorials, you must manually copy the sample files from that disk to your local hard drive using My Computer or Windows Explorer.
To install the tutorial files:
Locate your product disc: the disc from which you installed Autodesk VIZ. Place in your computer's drive.
Open My Computer or Windows Explorer, and navigate to the disc.
Navigate to your installation of Autodesk VIZ and paste the folder.
Now you have a program files\autodesk\viz2008\tutorials folder on your local drive.
Tip: If you have limited hard drive space, you can copy individual directories from the disk.
