strange, i didn't have any trouble with it... even with the tail... here in Maya ASCII format... (about 1.6 Mb)... --> https://www.strarup.net/dyno/Dyno.ma and in Maya Binary Format... (about 0,7 Mb)... --> https://www.strarup.net/dyno/Dyno.mb if you can't use it, I can delete the tail, and then convert it back 2 3ds, or maybe an other format if you want that... I'm using "Deep Exploration" from Right Hemisphere... to do the convertion... regards Strarup
