better export/ import features

[AMO]

i know that these are slowly being improved but stil missing a LOT

would love to see a .3DS import/export

i know this doesnt really appeal to you mac users but a lot of architects out there use 3Ds MAX for rendering and going to be even more so with the likes of final render and brazil being released for MAX

also a LWO import/export

Lightwave is also used by a lot of architects for rendering and detail mdeling. Also this has a mac and pc comunity so would serve a lot of vectorworks users especailly myself.

LightWave should support dxf files from what I recall.

VW 10 offers an IGES and .stl file export. This should be supported by 3d Studio. If not, the dxf/dwg export supports more 3d objects, hatches, patterns, fills, etc.

Hello

Yes but the *.3ds files are something as a standard in 3D. And they are a lot smaller then dxf or dwg.

The same for *.c4d.

Can 3ds Max import iges files ?

[AMO]

3ds is a nice standard format that many apps import and export. not many apps export and import IGES files.

as for dwg and dxf...

3ds and LWO are a lot smaller and arent limited to 3 sided polygons
