FYI, Playmation writes a terrible DXF. Topas is somewhat useful for simpler things, but horrible with cross-sectional modeling and DXF's o.k.. Real 3D is incredible, but currently does not export anything. I would like to hear your opinion of Caligari's MODELER (only) and export quality when you've had a chance to form a solid opinion. That program goes WAY back – it was the first to show on the Amiga around '86 – but about the last to ship years later <g>. I bet some of the Yost people remember it. It sold for $3-4k at first which was unheard of on that platform. Please do let me know what you think of it, as it's probably the only PC 3D app. that I haven't used. WOULD SOMEBODY PLEASE CREATE REAL3D TO 3DS COVERTERS – PRETTY PLEASE ! Sorry to use your message space for such stuff <g>. BILL
