[Radiance-general] Radout

[Hind Dirani]

Hi Jack,

I have only AutoCAD 2008 and 2010. I've downloaded from internet 3dsout
file, I knew how to use it from their site, I took an AutoCAD example from
Daysim files and I generate a file .3ds but this file .3ds didn’t work in
Daysim!
What is your suggestion?

Thanks a lot
