hi,

Is it posible to render a 3ds Max 7.0 scene (biped anim with Skin deform) in Alias Maya in a Mac G5 renderfarm environment ???

The goal is to be able to use the processing power of 15 Macs G5 (Mental ray render in Maya) of my client instead of my PC...

Any way of translating the Max scene into Maya for Mac OS ???

your help would be much appreciated....
thanks,

Juan.

Try the filmbox FBX format. It used to be Kaydara, but it looks like it now owned by Alias.
