Maya Support for Xpacker

[philpiggott]

Hi Brendan,

Just wondering if it was possible to allow Maya Objects to be imported in to the Xpacker and then used in BTB. You already use Collida and 3dsmax.

Reason I ask is that ive used COD4 mapping tools and find that they are great for knocking up quick easy structures and have a lot of textures and other objects that could be included. This program has a Maya Format Export option.

Whats your thoughts on this?

Cheers
Phil

Maya is not supported directly however, you could export to Maya
& then export to collada from Maya with the ColladaMaya plugin & then into xpacker.
Thats assuming you have Maya??

Does it export into any other formats??

3ds also

Nah i dont have collada or Maya, but 3ds max.

Ill keep hunting for a conversion plugin for 3ds max which allows maya files. If i find something that works ill post it up here.
