Access Technologies has a program that will take a .DXF file and translate it
into sculpt-animate file format so you can now ray-trace 3D autocad drawings.

I am in the process of buying the ACAD Translator, and will review it when I
have played with it for a while. In the meantime, has anyone else out there
had any experience with it (I know some guys in Holland do, they are the ones
who pointed it out to me, Thanks!)? If we can't have AutoCAD, at least 
we can outdo AutoShade (AutoDesk's solid modeller)! We can even do animations
of AutoCAD drawings.
