Thanks Clint, I also didn't think it could be done since there are no docs in either the 2.0 manual or on the landscape disks. Excuse me now while I do an extended landscape flyover of the Grand Canyon. ———————————————-Don- via Whap!

Don: Due to John's last minute trip to Sri Lanka, several of the last minute features have somewhat sparse documentation. I'm attempting to give tips where the docs are short here on CIS, and Jean has been doing likewise on our BBS. Feel free to ask any of the 'secrets' as to how to use such features as buildings, clouds and the new scripting features. These are the areas that the manual is lacking. (Mainly because the features weren't fully implemented when the manual went to press) I tried to explain them in the ReadMe files on the disk, but many people don't seem to be aware that they are there. As to MakePath, I was unaware that it could handle large landscapes until after 2.0 shipped. I thought we were going to have to do an update, but it turns out that the programmers already had that covered. Clint <VRLI>

Clint – Sri Lanka? That's about the closest major inhabited landmass to where the Navy is about to send me!! (Diego Garcia). Jeff Schweiger

Jeff: Hope you get to take your Amiga along. That way at least you can render images of land even if you can be there in person. <grin> Have a good tour! Clint <VRLI>

Clint – I'm limited in what I can take along, so the 2500 stays stateside – however, I've already picked up a 500 to send there ahead of me. I refuse to be Amiga-less for that long!! Jeff Schweiger

Jeff, quit feeling sorry for yourself. Pedros Banos is only about a hundred miles away. 🙂 Tough bike ride, though. Rob.
