Steve, << I SAW A MAP OR IMAGE OF A 3DS SCREEN.. >> Make one of your own. Download r3hidn.txt from the 3D Studio section of the lib. Within it you will find out how to turn on the built in screen capture ability within 3ds. Use it on any screen of your choice. jonas[adesk]

Before you start 3DS you can set an environment variable called screengrab to yes. Just put it in Autoexec.bat so it'll always be there. Set screengrab=yes. Then in 3DS you just do a CTRL-Print screen and after a second or two a dialog box will come up asking you the filename to save as. You can use any valid 3DS image format but the default is .tga.
