I think autocad generates .dfx files for 3D modeling, and there is a way to put them into FS2. None of this is solid, I am just going by something I think I remembered.

I use it desinging parts of machenery, I have to reinstall it to fix the problem. The files are .dwg, can only be used in autocad. I'd like to know what type truespace uses so I can send it to them for textures and to put it in FS2.
