- I am trying to convert a scene of objects drawn in Autocad 12
- to a format that I can use in one of the public raytracers. (POV, DKB,
- Rayshade, Vort.. or any others..). I have tried the DXF2DKB off of
- garbo, but it does not do polylines, which is what most of the file is.
- The scene is about 3 MB in DXF form, so it is quite large. Computation
- time for conversion or rendering is not important. What can I do with
- CSG output of Autocad? (Documentation not much help on this..)
-
- Any ideas? I will post a summary if possible..
-
- Thanks!
