Subject: [IML] IFW:Converter
Mike H.,
Thanks for the reply. Imagine is definitely more "bang for the buck", I
can't and won't argue with that. Guess I was getting impatient and wanted
more more more.....
As far as converters, anyone try 3dwin? It imports a heck of a lot of
file formats (Imagine included) and exports into a lot too. When
exporting into IFW format (say a hat) it will make the appropriate edges
hard edges/quick edges. So you son't get a totally phong shaded hat and
the quick edges are better than a bounding box sometimes. Plus it has
plugin support so if a company changes it's object file format the
programmer can update 3dwin with a simply plugin instead of a program
rewrite. Here's the url: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/thbaier
. Might want to email the owner of this prog. because if I didn't have
the older version I wouldn't know his address. It's nowhere to be found
in the new help files.
