Ed: /_______________________From your message________________________\\ I don;'t know much about what architecs need. How about some specific needs/wants? __________________________________________________________________ Useful things might include: Sun Path Calculator – Ability to enter Day-Month-Time and also the lattitude and have a Sun lightsource created at the correct location. Tree Locator – Some method for putting trees and shrubs around on a terrain model with minimal effort. It would be great to not have to know exact Z values, in other words, be able to plop some trees down on a site mesh and have them automatically adjusted to plant themselves at the top of the mesh. It would also be useful to have a "randomizer" to alter the tree sizes and rotations and even shape if thats possible. Object Query – Ability to hit on an object and find out its name, material, shadow casting ability and which lights have it included. Object Color/Material Assigner – Automatic method to have all objects assigned the color which most closely corresponds to their material's ambient color. I really have no idea about what can't and what can be scripted so these are some ideas which just came to mind. Bob
