> I thought this question might raise up and it's not too hard for me to edit binary but surly a text format would be more easy, if you can make it text then i prefer to write in a table, well i'll give you an example here:

> 3
> 4
> 004-015-155
> 229-015-255
> 122-060-077
> 122-111-000

no, write all the numbers into excel because excel can convert it to various text files. i'll write code to convert that text into what i want. you just worry about writing the data into excel. don't write the number of columns and rows. just make 15 columns and 16 rows filled with numbers and don't add any other extraneous stuff. i'd like someone to confirm that the 15 16 numbers are correct first though.

the normals are each one byte not three. the seperator that excel will probably use will be spaces or tabs but you don't need to worry about that; each time you will just write the numbers into excel and save as one of the txt files. i'll decide later which txt save as you should use that would be convenient for my program. Olaf what do you think?
