New 3D format in the works...

New 3D format in the works...

Max files don't move well between apps, they are (as I understand it) not
complete files with geometry and lighting contained in them, but rather
specify that 'this object goes here, this goes there' without storing the
object details. This means that a .max file pretty much doesn't convert or
load into anything else, and not into tS, nor into the converter that I use.
The route is to save it from Max in a different format, then import. Someone
with more detailed knowledge might be able to add more than this :)

HTH!
