It is hard to believe that there is a little intrest as you and others at Adesk have infered about RIB conversion. Adesk's quiet failure to deliver on that little promise ranks right up there with the Visual Link fiasco when I am looking for things to dislike about 3DS. <grrr> I am hoping that 3DS will support some kind of 3D/animation standard so that we won't stranded on this hardware/software island for too long. A wish: On many of our projects, especially when doing architectural stills, we would do anything (short of giving up 3DS) for 1) ray tracing and 2) shadow casting distant light sources (positioned for time of day, day of year etc.).
