[Qgis-user] QGIS to Blender - Converter / free global elevation mesh dataset

[Bernd Vogelgesang]

Hi Michael,
I installed the plugin an tried to test it.

So far I got no results. I tried it with a clip of a DEM of 10km radius of  
the EUR_DEM Dataset.
Seems it does not want to finish, the log sais for a while {"percent":  
99.93917274939103, "status_desc": "Calculating row 821 of 822"}

Maybe you could write some general recommendations about which sizes to  
use, caveats etc (aka a "little" help file ;))

Cheers
Bernd
