/* Dave, could you expand on your last three sentences, excepting "It's nasty."? I've been waiting for this conversation to come up so I could jump on it and leech some info! */ Well, if you're asking if I'll do some training here, no. But I don't mind discussing process. I use AME to construct the interiors. I use the original AA drawings as OSNAP guides for my AME primitives. AME creates BLOCKs which can be exploded into Polymeshes which can again be exploded into 3DFACE entities which translate well into 3DS. Most of the AA entities are useless to 3DS as true surfaces are not used… instead AA created extrusions (of LINEs, etc) and BLOCKs (many of which are made up of extrusions also). Extrusions are not true surfaces. 3DS needs surfaces. Ceste la vie. -dave
