Andy;

While waiting for my Ulead license, I've done some additional testing.

TEST A

I create a sphere in AC3D.
Export it as a .3DS.
Import directly to Uleads "Cool 3D PS"
Results: "Cool 3D PS" crashes on import .3DS (works with .x though)

TEST B

Using the same sphere created in TEST A.
Import the "Sphere.3ds" to Anim8or (a freeware 3D tool).
Results: The imported sphere imports as small pinhead sphere and
can be resized (made larger) in Anim8or.
Make sphere larger in Anim8or.
Export it from Anim8or to a .3ds.
Results: The Anim8or enlarged oject import fine into Ulead's "Cool 3D PS" OK.

Is there a scaling standard that I'm overlooking? Perhaps a variant to the .3ds specification?

Regards;

Wayne
