Larry: Sorry I have not gotten back to you sooner, but my father has been in the hospital for an operation and he is 82 years old. Any operation can be serious at that age. I assume you want some feedback on your program "extract". * At this time you must be sure that the filename in extract.dat matches the first frame to be rendered, therefore it would be nice to somehow relate the dat file to a specfic frame in the animation. This would allow one to render any frame without editing the dat file. * In your documentation a note to put the extract and pkunzip in the \3ds2\process directory would eliminate any editing of the configuration files for 3DS. One will need to add to the map path in the File/Configure pulldown menu to 3ds\process. * Question – What is the purpose of the "extract.for" file? Thanks again for your all your help?
