I did the same thing as Angus - and it works....sort of...
The only problem I found was that pfSequences work in realtime - so when you
do the S-L-O-W scrsave, you run much slower than realtime.
When I did this, on replay of the movie, all of the pfSequences would run
100 times faster! I dimly recollect that there is a way to fix that - but
I don't remember how.
