I'm nearly finished (semi-)debugging a utility I wrote for myself, since I
like to use AutoCAD R14 to model.  Everybody's problem, however, is that
there are no DXF converters that will convert AutoCAD solid primitives.  I
have worked around that problem (not solved it) by using an AutoLISP file in
conjuction with my converter.

Features:
1)    Toolbar & menu to use in AutoCAD
2)    Full support for all primitives (CSG) with LISP file
3)    Support for 3DFaces
4)    Creates camera, sky vector and look_at paths or points
5)    Support for lights
6)    Support for blocks:  each block is written to an .inc file and
included in the final
7)    Creates a texture .inc file based on layer settings

If anyone would be interested, please let me know, otherwise I will not
bother making it even a little bit use friendly.
