Hi Roger, Which way is up for the plugins can be plugin specific, but it can also be down to individual modeller and the convention they use. For instance terrapage and OpenFlight you can pretty well guarantee that they'll come in Z up as that the convention used in the modelling programs and the industry they are tied to. With other modelling packages the convention is often far less regulated. My guess systems that deal with whole worlds rather than individual artifacts will be more regulated in orientation.
