Hi,

this question might have been asked many times before, but I haven't found
an satisfying answer yet.
I wonder if there is a modeler, that can be used to create Povray-scenes as
well as BMRT-scenes. Until now I tried Moray and Breeze.
Both a very good and easy-to-use modelers, but I'm missing RIB output in
Moray (the plugin is still in feature-request-state) and Breeze produced
output, which was different to the preview.
Has anybody got an idea?

Thanks,

Sven

Hamapatch is a freeware modeller that can export
to pov and BMRT.
It can also use pov and BMRT as render engines
directly from Hampatch.
Program and manual:
http://www.geocities.com/hamapatch/program/index.html
Tutorials, plugins, models, links:

Don't know if this is what you are looking for, because
this is a bicubic patch modeller (no primitives, no CSG),
but would be useful for your scenes.

Hope this helps

Hamapatch as Txemi suggested is good, and so is Wings3d (
http://www.wings3d.com/ ).
You need to get the POV export plugin for wings, link is on same page.
