download the 3dstorwx.exe program from ActiveWorld's support page, 3rd
Party Tools... or if you're really lazy, just download from this http://Activeworlds.com/downloads/3dstorwx.zip in 3d Studio, export your scene into a 3DS format and run the 3dstorwx. This will get you the rwx model, but make sure that you put a material on the model in 3d Studio so it will look right, otherwise it turns out solid black... even after converting it to rwx, the texturing looks a little funky, and the dimensions change to about 10m (constrained proportions, of course). So you'll have to do some fiddling in notepad and rwxmod to get it to look right. Eep's page used to have some other converters, but he's still on a stint, so they aren't available...

Thank you for your help :)
but everything we create and upload can be walked through. how do we make it solid? its probably a simple command, but I don't know it, I'm still new to object making. again we appreciate your help :) [View Quote] > download the 3dstorwx.exe program from ActiveWorld's support page, 3rd > Party Tools... or if you're really lazy, just download from this > http://Activeworlds.com/downloads/3dstorwx.zip > > in 3d Studio, export your scene into a 3DS format and run the 3dstorwx. > This will get you the rwx model, but make sure that you put a material on > the model in 3d Studio so it will look right, otherwise it turns out solid > black... > even after converting it to rwx, the texturing looks a little funky, and > the dimensions change to about 10m (constrained proportions, of course).

actually there is a plugin for MAX to export to RWX... dont know where to
get it though :-Þ if I see it I will let you know [View Quote] velenoJan 19, 2000, 1:11am
Yes, I'm well aware of the plug-in... and I used it before, as well. The only
detail is that it only supports 3D Studio MAX R2 and R2.5, while I have R3 which is not supported one bit. See my point? But thanks for pointing that out to the less-informed. PS: If you see a plug-in around claiming to support export to rwx in 3ds R3, let me know... I'll see if it's as good as the claim... ;) Veleno owner of "Damascus" 297593 [View Quote] > actually there is a plugin for MAX to export to RWX... dont know where to > get it though :-Þ if I see it I will let you know > [View Quote] |
