| Kinetix / Discreet / Autodesk 3D Studio
MAX |
.MAX |
Be sure to note the version of each MAX
file you're interested in licensing from our catalog, or be sure
you're using the latest version of 3dsmax. MAX files are forward
compatible but are not backward compatible. |
| Autodesk 3D Studio R4 |
.3DS |
This is an obsolete application. |
| Corel Bryce 3 and up |
.OBJ or .3DS |
Some import issues relating to proper
scaling and/or object pivot placement are present in this
application. Also, when working in Bryce 3 or 4, texture maps do
not import along with 3DS files and have to be imported
individually. These are issues with the application source code,
not with our models. This issue has apparently been corrected in
Bryce 5. |
| Newtek Lightwave |
.LWO |
Be sure you're using Lightwave 6 or higher. Lightwave 6 files are forward compatible but not backward compatible. |
| A/W Maya |
.MB |
Be sure you're using Maya 4.5 or higher
for full compatibility. . . This application also supports the
importing of OBJ files but texture map filenames usually have to be
re-assigned to all scene materials after import. |

| Poser 4* and up |
