Hi Pascal,

Yes I can. You’ve made the number one mistake when starting with DVSP, and that’s forgetting to set the “Global Import Shift” values prior to importing your data! You’ll find this setting in the DVSP Explorer panel under “Scene Settings”, and the values must be set before you import anything into your 3ds Max scene.

The background to this is that 3ds Max is a single precision application which means that it loses accuracy when working at large distances from the scene origin.  Because of this, it’s important to transform all imported civil data during import so that it is placed as close to the scene origin as possible. DVSP remembers this shift in your project and it is applied to all other imported data and any draped aerial ortho-photography that you apply to your model.

Check out the “DVSP Data Import Panels” topic in the DVSP Help file for further details.

Best regards,

Bruce
