  • Anyone know how to import ascii data into max

    Hi - I have a .txt file of some terrain(ascii data). Is it possible to import it into 3ds max 2008, and if so how do i do it?

    Many thanks, redi

    Mm

    Maybe I'm mistaken, but you want it to be a mesh object ? Right ? Then you have to somehow interpret this point data. Maybe you should google for a "point cloud to mesh".
    I just can't seem to trust myself
    So what chance does that leave, for anyone else?

      Or read the maxscript tutorials and simply script a text file reader and mesh converter (there are samples in the manual that do similar things).
