I setup 3delight I had some troubles with the path, variables cause I never use them anymore for anything Jide showed me what they should look like however I still had to add a few things to get it working. I was able to get a sample .rib file that came with 3delight to show from the command line so I think that its somewhat setup right. but every attempt I made at exporting a cube from wings to a rib file doesn't seem to be working. renderdl cube.rib it starts reading it I don't get any errors but all I'm getting is the display window pops up and inside the window is completly black. I tried it a few different ways still get same reslult. maybe its my graphics card or my OS. If anyone has any Idea why its not working let me know more then likely its just me.
I,m using win98se heres my path setup incase you see something wrong it.

SET DELIGHT=C:\3Delight
SET DL_SHADERS_PATH=C:\3Delight\shaders
SET DL_TEXTURES_PATH=C:\3Delight\textures
SET DL_DISPLAYS_PATH=C:\3Delight\displays
SET PATH=C:\3Delight\lib
SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\3Delight\bin

Ok now I feel really dumb lol it was the fact I had no lights in the scene I had'nt seen the option on the primitives menu to add lights I only seen the area under view where it said scene lights 1 or 2. anyways that seem to work atleast I'm getting an image and know it's working it was driving me crazy I thought it was my path setup. thanks for the help :P

I was having the same problem, but I had lights in the scene. Turns out I had neglected to install the Hyperwings patch available at the same place you got the Ribbit plug.
