Hi, folks. This is a Public Domain little program that generates 
.PLG files for use with the Rend386 Public Domain Rendering Package. 
It converts objects from AutoDesk 3DStudio (C) Version 2.0 and up.

Instructions : just use the 3DStudio feature "Save ASCII File.." to 
generate an ASCII description file of the object(s) that You want to 
import. Then call 3DSC passing the whole name of the ASCII file, 
with .ASC extension ( You MUST use the estension .ASC ).

For example, to convert CONE.ASC type at the DOS prompt, 

3DSC cone.asc 

The converter will generate a file with the same name as the object 
You made with 3DStudio and the extension .PLG. If You save many 
objects in the same .ASC file, the converter will generate many .PLG 
files, one for each object.

I wrote the program during the Media Party at COX18, a squat in 
Milan, Italy, on 06/26/93. I modified a converter I previously wrote 
in C++ for use with Virtuality machines. Take this program "As Is", 
because I wrote it in about one hour and I drank some beer in the 
meanwhile. I tested it and it seems to work, but You know...

if You think it is useful send $3 to Shake Edizioni ( You can find 
the address in the notice as the program starts ).

Enjoy It!
