Hi All

I'm completely new to DB Pro (and BT) and fairly desperate by now...!

Searching all the forums and the code base, plus google was unsuccessful so far. It could be that i was blind or stupid, but i cannot find a solution for the following situation:

I need to find out a vertexes/points row and column on a (bt)terrain, based on the 3D mouse position.

Is there a neat solution for that?

Thanks for any help in advance!!!!

I don't personally own BT but if you don't get an answer here why not post the question on the Blitz Terrain plugin thread here: http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=181060&b=1

You need to make the sector objects ( I believe the command is BT Make Sector Object ) then use the normal pick object and pick vector commands to find the position.
