Hello to all the IBM platform based raytracers out there... I've recently decided to get a little more ambitious with my raytracing endeavours. I'm talking about creation of DXF's (via DesignCAD 3D) and their incorporation into filename.POV's. This is due in part to the VENUS.POV/INC I got from The Graphics Alternative BBS and several DXF sample files from ExecPC. I have DXF2RAW, Sandpaper v.3 and, of course, DAT2POV. Although they do work, I find the tedious editing to be a major pain. รพ Anyone aware of a "one step" process from DXF to POV ? รพ I've sent my registration money for PV3D (which is got to be the major suprise of the last month) and have been playing with Shawn Britton's WINTrace (rough demo... lots of promise). Are there any other modelers out there (save 3DS) that I should be taking a look at ? Any assistance, comments, advice, etc. will be most gratefully received. Thanks, in advance... +--------------------------------------------------------+ | 11:02 02/01/93 David Anjo D A S I G N | | Inter/UseNet -> david.anjo@canrem.com | +--------------------------------------------------------+ --- WinQwk 2.0b#285 -- Canada Remote Systems - Toronto, Ontario World's Largest PCBOARD System - 416-629-7000/629-7044
