If you want this to be good quality then you have to report problems
like this. Don't give up on them when you encounter a bug, report it and
see if it get's fixed. That's the real acid test. Be as specific about
the problems you have as possible.

It's fantastic that draw comp is serving the needs of a rather
specialized group, i.e. Performer users who need VRML models loaded.

Please help them by reporting bugs.

Cheers,Angus.
