You might consider increasing the size of the DList stack, and/or commenting out the warning written to the screen (the flood of warning messages slows things down dramatically all by itself). I understand that this isn't a decent solution, since one can't expect all the users to do this. But it's informative. I mention this because I ran into a similar problem after modifying some terrain with fgsd. Frederic commented that the DList stack size set by plib was arbitrary, and suggested increasing it and commenting out the warning. See the bottom of this message: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=9861990 It would be interesting to see if that solves your problem. If so, and if there are no obvious deleterious effects (I'm ignorant about this stuff), maybe changing the stack size can be suggested to the plib folks. -c -- Chris Metzler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (remove "snip-me." to email) "As a child I understood how to give; I have forgotten this grace since I have become civilized." - Chief Luther Standing Bear
