Hi!

I'm trying to discover the world of DDD...
I ran through some examples and it was ok.

But now the time has come to experiment with
selfmade ddd-models... and the trouble started!  :(

From some friends of mine I received dxf models
(mainly simple extruded ones), created (exported)
from the following programs:
- 3D Max, Autocad14, TurboCAD 3d, Corel Dream

I converted them with dxf2rsd (dos version 2.81,
win version 1.10e), but when loading them with
RSDTool (win version Beta 0.8b) I got "something"!
-> only some polygons appear, no 3rd dimension,
   polys in wrong positions....
(I tried many different ways of dxf2rsd conversion:
-auto -v -Y-Z -s -e 1 -quad2 5 -back....)


What could be the fault???
Please help me - it's frustrating when you can't
get your desired models to work!


thanx in advance for your help!
greetz
