Hi there.  I'm looking for anything that I can use to convert my AutoCAD 
.DWG or .DXF files into a format that is suitable for ANY ray-tracing 
package.  I've tried using DXF2DKB for the DKB-Ray Tracer, but with very 
little luck, it continually gives me degenerate triangles.  I would 
appreciate any help that someone out there could give me.

At this moment, the two systems that I'm using are a 386-33 running OS/2
, and a VAX 4000-300 running VMS 5.5.  I do all of the CAD work on the 
386, and then convert the files and transfer them to the VAX for the 
rendering.

Please reply via E-Mail, as I have difficulty getting into the 
newsgroups.

Thanks!
