Hi,

I got Max ver3 and I am trying to import a poly model with UV into max from maya. I noticed none of max import takes none of maya's export. Is there anywhere (free) where I can download, either maya or max, exporter.

Thanks, Eric

The OBJ2MAX (http://www.habware.at/max4/obj2max4.zip) will allow you to import *.obj files into Max from Maya

I'm not sure if it retains the UV info though...

Also, if you type "Wavefront" in the search engine at ScriptSpot (http://www.scriptspot.com) then it will lead you to a script that does the same (I've not tried it myself yet, but I've heard that it's good).

Also - The software Polytrans can export/import Scene dat to/from Max Maya with textures and a whole host of other information.

Hope this helps!

:D

Yes, OBJ retains UV
