Hi Guys,

I have a problem.
I want to open a scene file or model which I made with Maya in 3Ds MAX.
I got to know that I can do it with Polytrans for Maya plug-in.

(1) Is there anybody who has used this plug-in before?
(2) I want to know hos effective this plug-in is.
And how does this export.

I don't like a DXF export/import.
Therefore

(3) Is there any other way other than Ploytrans for my task?

Can you please help me?

Regards,
Amuthan

I have PolyTrans, and I have to say I like it :)
And if you can get PolyTrans plugins for both Max and Maya, you can export and import againwith PolyTrans' own fileformat, which means you get a perfect link up with the two progies :thumbsup:

Ok.:thumbsup:

Polytrans 2.2 is a standalone software ok?

There is a Polytrans plugin for Maya which you install in Maya like other Maya plugins. Can you please explain me how do u install and where do u get the output file?

Thanks:beer:

Didn't you get any install instructions with it? I don't think the install was anything special, I just installed it... bah, can't remember now, it's been awhile since I installed it :) (And I'm falling asleep while typing ;))

Oh and what do you mean by the output file?

I run the polytrans plugin, then select the "Export" menu and then select the filetype as 3ds. Or was this what you ment?
