Help! I am trying to create an animation of a site for our Waste Management department. I am DXF'ing in a series of TIN's (triangulated irregular network) models that were created using our in house software. When I DXF it into both Microstation and AutoCad (11 or 12) there is nothing wrong. But once it comes into 3DS R1, I can only see the faces from the bottom. Once I pass over the top, I can see right thru the wire mesh! i am REALLY confused. I have loaded from our software successfully before. Has anyone seen this before? If so, how do I fix it? I need to put this to a video by then end of next week, so I am in a teeny tiny bit of a rush. Thanx for listening….. later.
