A bit about me
My name is Tom. I am a retired architect. I managed to salvage AutoCAD 2006 and AccuRender 4 when I retired. Since both are 32-bit systems, I have them running on Windows XP (AutoCAD won't even install on a 64-bit operating system, I tried both in Win 7 and Win 10).
So anyway, I am keeping some very old and outdated programs running, but just for personal projects which have no commercial value to anyone but me. At best I am semi-proficient in AutoCAD and Accurender. I'll post some renderings on here when I'm finished working on the current project, which is a "retirement" house that is "net-zero" energy consumption.

Will test 'Automesher LT' (developed by Automapki), if I run into troubles again.

"Good day,
I searched the former forum posts and found another option to solve this problem which is another plugin to autocad-----AUTOMAPKI. You can give it a try."

3ds +obj import works for older files-'xfrog-plants', for instance... .Comments + Critics appreciated!Hopefully accurender still survives!
"Found 'Textured Mesh Support' only works with obj and 3ds Files which do not contain PBR Maps.
To 'obj' converted newer 3ds do not render in nXt :-("
