Lightwave -> Ut2003 (Guns and Characters, not Static Meshes)

[Longman]

Have you tried this?

what plugin are you talking about? Digital Extremes haven't released anything yet, but they "are" working on an exporter for Lightwave... should be here pretty soon, just hope its nothing like the Maya stuff which didn't even work.

Honestly if you want to do this get things into 3dsmax and work it out from there, thats what I do.

yeah, I use max and the actor x plugin works like a charm, so far I've only imported a physique skinned model, no animations.

this is why you should learn the basics of all the programs (atleast I think so), so that you could export the model from Lw, and animate it in Max or Maya...if they now support exportation to ut2k3...

trouble is, im on win98 and so Maya PLE won't install, and i don't have MAX.

Whoops, i forgot the link to the plugin im talking about, d'oh :rolleyes: it's this one:

Longman: Yeah, I've seen that tutorial, unfortunately its only for static meshes and not for skeletal animations and models :(

Hopefully the official digital extremes plugin should come soon tho :)
