Converting from 3dsmax without 3dsmax

Tankko · Post by **Tankko** » Sun May 14, 2006 4:04 pm

I have some .3ds files that I'd like to convert to .mesh files, but I don't have a copy of 3dsmax. These files were done by someone else in Wings3d and exported to 3dsmax format.

Now I have them (but not the .wings file).

Is there a way to do this?

(please say yes)

If you mean 3ds files, the best thing is to import them into your favorite modeler.
However, if it is max files, you're out of luck.

Can I surgest downloading a trial version of max and exporting them using that?

Thanks for the suggestions. I found the .wings files in a .zip that I got from the artist.

I'm not sure, but I think someone from the community has provided an 3ds2mesh converter, just make a search!

I've found it, it's in ogreaddons section!
