Yes, I guess I do too.  Thought I checked it out.  I'll fix it as soon as
possible.

    I have not yet reinstalled AutoCad to try this, can you tell us a little
of what it can do? Is it only for AutoCad 3D objects, and does it export
meshes? I haven't use AutoCad for 3D objects yet...

I've posted the user's guide at www.cgirealm.com/cadman/autocad2pov.html
Check out section 3.1.3, Other Objects.

Don't have AUtoCAD or $3000 to get it?  Don't want to go the warez
route?  Try the following legal, free ()for home use) AutoCAD "clone":



http://www.cadopia.com/


At least  80% of the utility at none of the cost.  Reads and writes
native DWG files, does most autoLISP, etc.

Does it do solid modeling?

Not at the time, only faces.

This is essentially due to the stupid decision autodesk has
made, not making .dwg (thus acis) specs availiable.  Autodesk is
the Microsoft of cad business (maybe even worse).

(however, if you open a .dwg file with solids in Intellicad, it
 will not display them, but they will be saved back as they were
 if you do a save within Intellicad)
