Hello, I have a drawing with an imported LandXML which projects a surface. In order for AutoTURN read the surface, the LandXML/Geopack surface needs to appear as a triangulated Mesh so that AutoTURN Pro can use to generate a 3D simulation. Just to illustrate, I want to turn this:Into something like this (Surface Readable by AutoTURN):Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Hi Michael,
All you need to do is use the "Mesh from Elements" tool with a Terrain that has its Triangles displayed. Make sure you have the "Keep Original" option set in the tool to avoid it trying to delete your original terrain.

I don't believe Ss10 has that tool. The images appear to be from V8i.

Thanks for the heads up. This explains why then.
V8i has that Mesh from Elements tool Mark mentions. It's under the Tools dropdown (top menu), then Mesh>Create Mesh> (only available in 3D). I believe Mark means to merge into the file if referenced, if it's already active in the file, disregard. When you use the Drop tool with ONLY Application Elements checked, it should drop the terrain to a Mesh automatically (maybe into smaller chunks depending on how the terrain was made.
