Hopefully somebody out there can help wit this.

As a part of some of my scenes i'm working on, I want to have a cutaway iew.

the most obvious thing was to just difference a part of the model like so:

  difference
   {
    union
     {
      object { TANK }
      object { TankBuzbee translate <wide*19,0,-wide*4>}
     }
    box { <-1,-1,wide*75> <60,tall*11,-wide*25> rotate <0,45,0>  texture {l3g0_white}
}
    bounded_by { box { <-wall,-wall,-wall> <wide*55,tall*11,wide*55> } }
   }

where the object TANK is a VERY complex model (100,000 + objects)

This works but its inordnately SLOW.

any ideas on how to speedup this  process?

Thanks,
Jon
