Not too long ago I asked if there was any additional info regarding the
performer terrain utilities (ptu).  Specifically, I am interested in sample data
files.  There were none on the Performer 1.2 CD.  Do anybody at SGI have
something lying around we could experiment with?

Also, I would be interested in knowing if anybody has a need or has developed a
more advanced DXF loader for Performer.  Being an architecture school we do, but
wanted to check to see if there has been any activity in this area before we
begin - any comments?


Thanks

 There is a two volume CD from SGI around called "ONYX Greatest Hits". A sample
 application (satellite image flyover) using ptu is located on volume II. 
 Unfortunately the satellite image and DEM are located on volume I. So you can
 copy the data on disk as I did. I would be very interested, if the 
 application works on your SGI, since I didn't manage to run it properly.
 
 In addition I'd be interested if anyone has managed to get the 'perfly' sample
 program running with '.ptu' files. We noticed that 'LoadPtu' doesn't interpret the
 control file correctly.
 
 Any comments?

Where can I (is there) more information - read examples - of the PTU terrain
stuff?

I didn't notice any on the 1.2 CD - or am I mistaken?  If not, could one or
several be made available via FTP?

Thanks
