I bought Rhino for around $1000.00 and i dnt know if i could create a gun on it and put it in Torque as one of my weapons. Can you put anyting from Rhino into Torque. Because i heard that Rhino is one of the best modeling thinks out there. That why it is like a thousand dollars or more. So can someone please reply if they know?

.dts is the file format that Torque uses for shapes other than Interiors AKA buildings. I'm sure it lets you export to other file formats so you could model in Rhino then export to something that MilkShape about $20 or Blender Free that can export as .dts

I don't know anything about Rhino but i'm pretty sure it doesn't have a .dts exporter. .dts is the file format that Torque uses for shapes other than Interiors AKA buildings.

You cannot. It's unsupported. However, you could export your mesh as a .3ds or another format, import into milkshape, and export as a .dts.

You could to model with but you would need another modeler to eport to then from that modeler you would need to export to .dts

Erm..Let's not waste GG bandwidth, shall we? You wouldn't happen to have any instant message clients, would you? It would be far easier to explain there. Or you could look at some of the tutorials on here.

Pretty please..

In your case I think you're safe though as it exports to .3ds I believe. .3ds is a very popular format so all you have to do is find a program that exports to .dts.
