Thanks, this is an option. Also I've emailed to Paul Bourke, asking him about
permissions for using his works in POV-Lab and about this converter too.
I know, he is using it.

Paying only loose attention to this thread, but I think many use the
windows program PoseRay to convert from Obj (and many other formats) to
POV-Ray SDL.
Some years ago this program ran under wine on linux for me, but I've
done nothing current with it. Plus, I'm a little unsure of the current
status of PoseRay not having seen much recent mention of it. Thomas?

Many thanks for your reply, I was very close to canceling this project, but now
I found exactly what I was looking for - many options and converting from
command line.

Present version (v.3.13.31 - March 2, 2021) works like a charm !
All the best,

Coming too late to this thread, but yes, I would also have suggested
Poseray indeed. It works like a charm for all kind of things.

Hi,
> Poseray indeed. It works like a charm for all kind of things.
It's true, but I am stuck on the following: trying to export data from ZBrush in
OBJ format I found that per-vertex colors are passed non-standard way - in
comments, like described in the following paper:
http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/obj/colour.html
Paul writes that _some_ converters cat read per-vertex colors from three last
numbers in line. I've done a few experiments with PoseRay (small OBJ attached),
but without success, so I am in doubt - am I doing something wrong or it's not
possible 'by design' of PoseRay ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

I am afraid I cannot help you with this as I am no expert, but others
might. I do not use ZBrush myself (too expensive!). For modelling, I
rely on Silo instead, and Poser for figures. Both export OBJ format, and
I have no problems with them in Poseray.

Hi, Thomas.
> ... Both export OBJ format, and have no problems with them in Poseray.
Could you please send me small examples of these OBJs ? I would like to know, if
they are using per-vertice format and how if so.

Sure, can do.
Boerin_klomp_L.obj has been created in Silo and then exported as OBJ (to
be imported subsequently in Poser).
Crate1.obj is a Poser object.

Thank you, shoes are very fashioned )
But unfortunately I see no per-vertice colors there. In any case yesterday I've
obtained Pixologic's SDK and now can omit OBJs, but exploring of this format was
not in vain.
