Hey guys,

Was wondering if someone could help me with something really quick. I created something at my school using Max (which is more aggravating than Maya somehow…) and I forgot to make an .obj of it.

It was created with Max 2010. All I need is an .obj.

Thanks,
-Steven Palmesano

I couldn't work out how to compress it small enough to just post here, so have uploaded it to MediaFire, hope it's ok, let me know if it's not.

I thought there was a max importer with the maya bonus tools - it might be worth checking it out.

But shame on you for the rookie error

Dango77, thanks, but… where's the file??

tweetytunes, haha true, but I didn't think I'd need to use the 3D file when I got home.

The importer is for .3ds, not .max

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Jr.Who, I tried to load it in Max and got Missing .dll's for Wave Master, Pro Sound, and Storage and Filter. And Max would not open it. I tried for you.

Challenge me and I will try. Because If I should fail, failure also has a prize (Knowledge).

Sorry, was in a rush to go out after I uploaded it and didn't get to check the link, here's another link to it, hope this one works!

*edit*

Just checked it and that link works, here's one to the material, don't know if you'll actually need it but it's there if you do.

Hey folks,

Need a quick favor. I made something in Max 2010 and forgot to create an .obj file. Max can be frustrating. Can anyone help convert it to .obj? Your assistance would be greatly appreciated!
