I tend to agree. But i wanna say 3ds max is the most compatible.

I would have to say no to Maya at least on the Mac side of things.
3D studio Max and Lightwave are both good choices. Both export plugins are well support, at least on the Lightwave side of things.
I prefer Lightwave over Max as it fits my workflow better. Tried both (including Maya) and I'll stick with Lightwave for now. Honestly, pick either one and you won't go too far wrong.

Thanks all ... i'm using 3dmax log time , and i think it's a good chance to move and try Lightwave...

but ... does this engine helps in models animation ?
for example ... i'd export my model from max or LW to this engine , am i able to setup animation for model ?

or i must do the whole animation in what tool i'm use then just export all to this engine !

@ Anothony Rosenbaum ...
Thanks man for your great advice , when i tried to log in , below message appears. DOes it means different registeration than this forum or it means i have to buy this engine to be able for this kind of support?

Sorry, you must own a GG developer product (TGE, TSE, T2D, RTS-SK, Lighting pack) or be a GG Associate in order to qualify for the TDN beta


Thanks all for a powerful kindly help
