Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone knows of a free or cheap work flow for anim8tor and wings to any format that blitz 3d can use?
Thanks for any help.

if it's only for static objects, both can export to *.3ds.

There's no way that I know to export bones to blitz3d from Anim8or. Wings has no animation.

Would I need 3d studio max for that?
If not I think I found a way to export the bones.
Anim8tor.3ds < ppmodeler.x < blitz 3d I don't know.

You don't need Max.

*.3ds format is available free to every package that decides to support it. In Anim8or oBject mode, export, and choose 3ds format in the drop down menu.

In wings, same. Export, 3ds.

Blitz loads *.3ds, doesn't it?
yep, it does.

to convert to x, too lazy i am to dig for th elinks in google now but , several mesh converters or modeller supporting several formats :

- crossroads 3d, freeware.
- certain beta version of 3d exploration, a very old one.
- accutrans .Shareware and very good.
- Lithuwrap, it also uv maps, not easily available anymore. freeware.
- Metasequoia LE, exports to *.x . Not allowed use in comercial projects.

But you don't need those. Export directly from wings or Anim8or.
