I need a tool that is able to convert POV(3.0) files to 3DS or DXF files.
It would be fantastic, if there's some freeware ( or shareware ) available
on the WWW.

To the best of my considerable knowledge there is no such
program in exsistence and there is not likely to be one
in the near future. It is highly probematic because of
the loose structuring of the Pov scripting language.

Sorry.

Yeah, and just imagine it... once you've got a nice binary version of the
scene worked out, how in hell are you meant to calculate all the adaptive
degradation on those polygons!!!???

AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  It's the attack of the smooth_triangle!!!
