Wings3D (which I see you've tried to get running) and Blender (plus the
POV plugin) are two that I use.

What??!? Wings3D is compiled natively on Linux. No need for WINE.

Like I said in another post, I couldn't get it to work then (long time ago)
Haven't tried it since.

I tried wings out and it crashed the system. Havn't tried again. I checked
out Art of Illusion, and it looks like it has great potential. It has a
fabulous user's manual.

Saw the other post after I wrote - it must've been a very long time, I've
been using Wings3D on SUSE since the 9.x days (for SUSE, not Wings).
Current version runs very nicely.

Things change in the Linux world much faster than that - you can most
assuredly bet that if the software is maintained that a critical issue
like that would've been fixed long ago.

Oh I know that. I have been testing/using Suse since version 6.something. I
just never had the need for Wings3D. I only played with it for a bit and
didn't get it to work then. I later tested a Win version on Wine because a
friend asked me. That one I got to work, so I left it at that.

Well, that's fine, but it seems unreasonable to me to assume that the
problem was never fixed and *recommend* a current version be run the same
way as the version you got to work. I wouldn't generally expect people
to make recommendations on file naming conventions in Vista (for example)
based on Windows 3.1, either. ;-)
