Hey Everyone,

I'm a relative newbie and I am trying to learn more about modeling in Maya. I have just started to use this site and I downloaded a lot of the models, hoping to practice with them in Maya 5.0.

My problem is, I downloaded some of the "house" models but they were in .MAX format. I have the plug-in for .3ds but not for .MAX.

How can a newbie, like me, import some of the house models into Maya?

I can convert *.max into *.3ds format. Please, give me the link to this "house model"

Attached is a copy of two ZIPped .MAX files.

Thanks for your help.

Chris, Baltimore.

I just realized that these files came from this site.

You need to realize that no program besides 3D Studio Max can import .max files. So you'll have to use a program like deep exploration to convert them. (Or the wonderful talents of our very own Stryker!) :D Just an FYI.

Later.

Use deep exploration man. It really rocks for that sort of thing. www.righthemisphere.com
