This is a Stupid Photographer Question (which can be taken two ways, of course). I am trying to import some .obj files into CS3 Extended, and it's not working. These are files a client has given us, and came from Maya, tho' I'm not sure which app or version. When I bring them in to Photoshop, the best I can see is a pattern of dots, if I chose Render Mode-Vertices. Otherwise, I can't see anything at all. I mean absolutely nada. This happens if I Open the obj files, or if I do a New Layer from 3D File. At first I thought it might be a video card issue, but I've tried to open the obj files now on two completely different systems (Mac Mini Intel and G5 iMac), both of which seem to comply with the system requirements listed by Adobe. My guess at this point is that something's not right with the way our client is exporting the files, but I have no idea what to tell them to do differently. I could send one of the files to someone here, if looking at them would shed any light on my problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Dan Clark
