I thought that the window hole was probably being skinned over when it was translated into 3DS. I figured that AME would fix the problems **if** my magic number to turn it on would ever come. I should go beat on our procurement people and find out if they've ordered it. I thought that I tried to remove the polylines and replace them with 3D faces and it didn't work. In fact, I just figured out why it didn't work – I have the doors defined as external blocks. I modified the block file and inserted another door, but I bet that it used the existing door block instead of the new one. I should rename the modified block and import the new one. Thanks, Chris P.S. I did a test animation of the building this week – 30 frames with just a simple linear camera movement. What I didn't think of was that the building is about 150' long and I started about that distance outside of it. My model looks **Real interesting** when you run at it at 300 feet/sec!!
