YOu can DXFout your files and convert them to POV-Ray with DXF2POV but they will be raw triangle data ( I think) which is slower, takes alot of space but it would be useful for odd shapes (meshes etc..) . check out PV3D if you want a front endprogram for…
#Autocad + Povray? Message #20769
Recently I've started fiddling with Povray. In the past I've been devoted to Autocad with Ashade/Renderman, but Povray's quality & ease of use could make a believer out of me. Does anybody know if Autocad (vers.10) can be used as the front end program to generate objects for Povray? Thanks,…

I've been following your efforts for a freeware VR animation system; they're very nice. Our InterChange Plus system of 3D translators does only polygonal objects at this time. We do have a DXF Converter for it, but it doesn't handle the polymeshes yet, although it does a lot of other…
#11219 DXF meshes? Message #11383
John, that sounds like a rather nice idea… a program that can create a polygon mesh from the DXF patch information. It sure would be a nice piece of code for the freeware world! What with all us various rendering types around here, it would be really nice to have…

A little correction to the description of "DXF3D.ZIP" found in library 11, uploaded 10-Jan-92. This is the *same* version of DXF3D.C found in the AutoCAD forum. (The file size is a little different, I think, because this archive contains the useless .OBJ file.) It does parse the flags that mark…
