Hello Andy, Do you want to transfer a VistaPro v3 landscape into 3DS? (as a mesh only, no textures or paths) I've done this thru the convoluted: Save the VistaPro file as a PCX (DEM to PCX) (may be able to skip the next two steps with the /p option on GIFDXF below (?)) Load the PCX into Corel PhotoPaint Load the grey scale palette, GREYS.PAL Edit as required Convert the PCX to GIF Convert to DXF using GIFDXF (avail on this forum) Load into 3DS One small problem is GIFDXF makes all interior lines hidden, so if you want to animate your mesh, it's hard to work with in the keyframer. No problem in the editor. I wrote and uploaded a little program a while back, DXFUH.ZIP I think, which will fix this. There may be a much easier way, but I don't know it. JKJ (in constant search of hard ways to do things)
