Thanks to a python-script I managed to export the blender files to DFX
and OBJ.Now I can import them into wings3d and then convert to *.pov .
:-)
But I thinking about whether I should use wings3d for modelling (instead
of blender)?!
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Which program is more suitable for rendering? (wings3d or blender)
I think you all have more experience, and can help me. What are the
(dis)advantages of both the modellers? Which one would you PREFER!?
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Many thanks for your response (see last articles, too)
Regards,
ganymed

ps.: which modeller do you use under linux? Certainly moray is the best
povray-modeller...

Hi ganymed,

wings3D is a very recent project and is still in progress. Whereas Blender
has been developed for years and has much more advanced features. As for
which one I prefer, it is Blender. But there is a drawback, it is really
complicated at first. But, when you get used to it, you just don't think
that.

Just try both of them and make up your mind.

All the best

Fidel.
