I have a question. Has the 3ds model format been fixed in the patch 5 or not? I have tried to populate my matrix with plants and other objects however when using the 3ds plant models when you try and start the program the whole thing freezes up. I hear the music and sounds but the screen doesnt appear. 2 minutes later im greeted with a "program not responding" error.

go to the update/downloads page and make sure the version you are running is the latest released version. They were calling it Update 5 - beta 3, that's how I derived 5.3.

I've got the same problem when trying to load .3ds files. Last week, I sent an e-mail concerning the problem to Lee but I don't receive an answer yet...
For those having the problem, which OS, graphic card(+drivers), DBPro version, ... are you using?
