Getting real close to doing what I want for Blender.
Time to work on the stuff to grab the info I want from a location.dat and mix that into a Blender script.

Gonna work on doing the Terrain file stuff first as I think it's needed to fill things out.

I also take time to help others with stuff. Looking at Grenso's issue and spent time with Mister_M teaching him a few things.

Looking forward to seeing how this goes Jeff. This could open up a lot of possibilities with harbor designs and features.

Thanks Mate. Just wish I'd have looked at Blender long ago!
The scripting ability is amazing! I put it right up there with 010!

May even remove 3DS Max from my system.

My youngest embarrasses me with his Blender skillz... he is doing 3D modeling AND animation. I am always asking him questions. Understanding the answer is my main problem...

- plus, there is a certain "old head" modder we all know and love, who just started in Blender and 3D modeling less than a year ago and surpassed me a while back... of course, I am like the turtle in the hare race, except I have to stop and watch ToobYu vidz for just about everything I try to do... my skull is like a lobster trap that lets the brains leak out...

I'm just getting started with writing scripts for Blender! Still learning to actually work with it.
For what I have learned so far? I can see doing a script to just open a Location.dat and have it load with no other work needed!

If a program is written, I can see the user wanting a visual "catalog" of all that is available... "Let's see, I want the green one - no, make that red... changed my mind - I like the blue the best... maybe..."

I suppose you'd like it to work with touch Screen also?

I do have an old project that uses Direct3D11 for touch screen code.

Back to doing a Script........
I'm thinking a multidimensional array would work to adjust obj files on import.
So say the Location.dat has 200 objects. I'd have the array set for 200 by 3 or 6 depending on Blender Python.
