Hi Performers!

I was playing quite a while now, using several modellers, generating
*.dxf. I was loading them into our Performer-Software sometimes
directly, sometimes converted into .pfa or .pfb.

Now, we changed our modeller and something seems to be wrong. The new
modeller can only do his own format or .vrml (version 2).

When I try to load or convert those wrl/vrml files, I get:
PF Warning(2): pfdFindConverterDSO() - Could not load
DSO for extension "wrl"

No problem I think. I download a converter wrl2anything and I can
produce good looking .dxf, .stl, .3ds. When I convert them, the result
can be viewed with our modeller again and with other programs.

When I try to use them together with my software (either directly or via
conversion to .pfa or .pfb) or with perfly, I get pure nonsense. All I
see are two tiny 3D cubes and one 2D 'thing' that might eventually be a
2D-Projection of the object I originally created.

What might be the problem? Is there a problem with transferring data
from Win2000(sic - our new modeller and the converter) to Linux(our
'Performer':)? The old modeller was running under Linux, and there were
no such problems.

Before I go insane - any suggestions?

Thomas
