I just wondered if Racer can support this because it might open up
modelling to a whole bunch of people who can't afford 3D Studio. Check
it out at http://www.racesimcentral.net/, its about a 25Mb
d/l.
Just a thought,
Nick.
It also costs 80,000 to buy a developers licence to enable it to be used
with a project.

And somehow I doubt Discreet would give me a free license.
So Max or Maya or Lightwave it is (there was someone working on a
Lightwave exporter). Or ZModeler.

I think with all these types of cheap/free versions, it's either a
problem of undocumented file formats or just plain illegal to use the
program for this purpose.
Ofcourse, that last thing is quite a thin line, as with MD3 output for
GMax (which works, although unfortunately the MD3 format is a bit too
limiting for Racer in some respects).
