Martin, would some kind of impartial tool help solve this problem? I don't know the details of WHY some particular model wouldn't work well in FG, but wouldn't it be fairly straightforward to createa "model checker" tool that could help an artist make sure that their model meets some minimum criteria? This might go a long way towards avoiding any potential "political" problems with the process. g. -- Proud owner of F-15C 80-0007 http://www.f15sim.com - The only one of its kind.
