Hi,

this program is a small utility to view and convert 3D 
files to a number of other 3D formats. Beside well known 
features from V3.5 now full material conversion is supported.

3DWin 4.0 is available at 
	http://www.stmuc.com/thbaier


What's new:

  * running unter Win95/98/NT4/W2K
  * easy installation
  * plugin architecture
  * updates via support web page.
  * clear and comfortable userinterface
  * full help support
  * robust and fast conversion routines
  * reliable handling of larges scenes
  * detailed statistics about conversion process
  * supports polygon meshes including normals and uv vectors
  * supports light and camera conversion
  * supports material and image map conversion (registered version
only)
  
   Import:

   	Generic ASCII format (*.raw)
   	3dStudio (*.3ds, *.prj)
   	Lightwave (*.lwo, *.lws)
	Autodesk (*.dxf)
	WaveFront (*.obj)

   Export:
   	Generic ASCII format (*.raw)
   	3dStudio (*.3ds, *.asc)
   	Lightwave (*.lws, *.lwo)
   	Autodesk (*.dxf)

Sorry, no luck, because the 3D engine was totally rewritten to support
nurbs, splines, primitives, materials and textures.
