Lightwave to MAX

by Adam "Xylek" Turkelson · in Artist Corner · 08/13/2001 (11:46 am) · 4 replies

I was just wondering if there was some sort of plugin for either MAX or Lightwave that would let me load lightwave files into max. I have read very criptic bb posts that lead me to believe something like this exists but I can't seem to find out for sure.

Thanks,

Sure, there has been a plug for quite some time. For earlier versions of Max as well. Try http://www.3dcafe.com if it's not there try typing .lwo to .max in your favorite search engine.

There is a program called PolyTrans which can supposible translate the data in a file format from one 3d program to another 3d program.

I have never worked with the software before so I can't give you my opinions of it.

Current versions of lw[6-6.5-7] can natively export .3ds
You have to use a plug-in with lw older than lw5. Max should be able to handle these with ease.
right?...
