ConRAD / 3ds2rad converter - ArchiCAD -> R adiance

-John

PS. I'd welcome any reports of using SketchUp to model scenes for
Radiance.

I tried exporting a Sketchup model to Rad. It's been a while but I recall
having problems going directly to Radiance with dxf2rad and strata2rad. I
exported dxf and then brought that into Infini-D. I also tried going through
Bryce.. and Hash Animation Master

When finally got it into Radiance, there were too many unnecessary polygons
- I ended up Re-modelling the house.

But now, playing with the 3ds2rad script, it seems to be a much more
seamless process, not to mention maintaining material properties.

After a quick try, Sketchup export to3ds, > 3ds2rad seems to work well.

But that does'nt seem to make it to the list. I'm always copy/pasting the
