Hello again
Contacted Ozi development crew regarding the problem with the automatic 3D data
download (SRTM 3 sec) not working. They have fixed the issue and now it should
work as normal. You have to download and install the current version of Ozi
again (V3.95.4s) to get it to work. They have change the exe file but its still
the same version number.
OziExplorer will identify what SRTM files you need to download for the map you
have loaded (the tile relevant to bit shown in screen that is) and unzip them
for you. The files are downloaded to whatever folder you have selected in DEM
file paths for Globe (Arcview).
If the download terminates keep trying.
Cheers
Greg

never even starts. On my PC files are (suppose to be) deposited in C:\Temp -
this may not be universal.
