I shall be involved in a project that would require us to use data stored within 3DS. One way to make this work would be to have the ability to "see" the objects (vertices, faces etc..) from a camera viewpoint. Would an IPAS routine be able to gain access to this and see the whole scene as objects?? I am also having trouble understanding those SXP source files. Does anyone know of a good book on fractal graphics (I assume that's what's going on..) Thanks for any help, BITS.

IPAS routines now have access to everything in the scene. You can pretty much do anything you can imagine in there. Re sxp info… have you ever read the Renderman Companion? There's lots of great info in there. – G
