I am a P.E. working full time in highway accident reconstruction and have started using 3ds for photographic measurements and animations. The animations are usefull especially for sight distance/ time and distance questions. I have found that my HP Scanjet IIc is very usefull. It allows the accident photographs to be used as backgrounds in 3d models, identical photos can be mapped onto fixed objects to allow vehicles (also mapped) to move in front of and behind objects in the accident scene creating a realistic vedio. I am not a 3ds expert yet but I like what I have been able to do to date. If I can answer any questions or help you let me know, John
