anyone got such a piece of code?
how it is with conversion to 3dmax, any good prods to recommend?

Polytrans by Okino Computer Graphics can convert between lots of formats. It has a Maya plugin version too. Supposedly it can keep animation data and stuff too, but I've never tried it. It's expensive :)

If you want to export Maya data to a custom format, you might want to look here. This guy has a guide to writing a little Maya exporter, which runs external to Maya, and uses Maya's DLL's.

I should also mention Right Hemisphere's 3D Exploration. Its "Enterprise Edition" can convert between lots of formats.. and includes 3DS Max and Maya, but does not support Maya's animation. The "Discovery Edition" is a browser.. basically like ACDSee for 3D models.

you should take a look at <a href=http://www.highend3d.com>highend3d.com</a>. There are several plugins for maya, and perhaps some good export plugins, that fit your needs.

thanks for info!
knew about Polytrans but program so specific like this, hard to find pirated version.

still, i'm afraid these convertors wont be perfect.. if only everything is corrected after conversion.

uhm... and sorry for the "cool" link.. that was my first comment.
can somebody enable htmlcode here? ;)

believe or not but have no clue myself :D
there is some bb code or how its called, never cared to check.

hmm, just checked, here it is <url>http://www.pouet.net/faq.php#BB Code</url>

muaha looks like i got it wrong again.. anyways link is just at the submit button when you post

oh no, i don't want to look @ ubb-code.. for everything new i learn, something other disappears out of my mind ;)

and i don't want to forget my pouet-password

but I've never tried it. It's expensive :)

lol, since when has anyone here actually paid for the software there running?

well.. if there's some tool that's absolutely free, that's certainly a bonus.

yes, that's an argument.. you buy maya for much money, but you get much free stuff for it for download ;)

or you use povray ;)

any progress on this front for someone? (:

raver, try "3D 4 Win" ... it convert a lots of format
the scene viewer is shareware but the converter is free !
hope that help you !
Stv.

thanks but i really doubt..
even polytrans for maya i tried didnt do well (but i didnt have the last version so maybe..).

i think i am more interested in getting someone to code maya engine and thats it :)

hummm....
maybe with some members from Moppi, no ?
if i'm not wrong demopaja use Maya !
Correct me if i'm wrong ! :)

corrected.

you can also just write the exporter for maya yourself, ofcourse.

i cant code PC and i cant code C

There's an obvious remedy for that, you know. :)

love for the assembler and 8 bits - there is no cure for that you know (:

Then don't use maya. It's probably mainly written in c/c++ and it's not for an 8 bit platform.

i cant code that demo but i am one making music for and modeller is using maya, he doesnt want to wste time and master 3dmax just like me dont want to master C+++ whatever.. so just looking for coder maybe?

sounds more like it.

and your excuses for not learning some decent programming language include system knowledge are weak.

incompetence, by any chance?

no i am just getting old and want to create rather than learn and i do it fine with things i know..

or yes. because i dont want, i cant - sure thang.
