Are there any programs that convert DXF to POV-Ray Mesh programs on the
Mac? I'm working on my IRTC entry, and I have a body part from Poser
exported to DXF, and if I use the windows utilities, I can use Warps
Mesh Smoother and Crossroads to give me what I want, but I'd like to do
this on the Mac from start to finish and not have to use any Windows
programs.
Any helpers?

dxfPR claims to convert from dxf to pov using JAVA so it should be
fairly platform independant. The author claims it has only been
test on the Mac platform though so that is a good sign -

You might take a peek at Lillysoft 8 which is available on both
Windows and Macintosh but I don't recall if it is appropriate.
I need to rewite the description for that program when I get
the time - http://member.nifty.ne.jp/lilysoft/

Forget Lillysoft 8. It does rib2pov but not dxf2pov.

Did you try any/all tools on http://mac.povray.org/model_tools.html?
I never had to convert a DXF so I really don't know the quality of them, but
it might be worth a try :-)

You can try our old (very old) version of povray unofficial. Just use
the utilities link on our home page.
If you run the application, use the utilities menu. The first entry is a
dxf to Pov converter.

mistaken...

The broken link to MacSPD is fixed and it is available again, now hosted on
mac.povray.org.
