I find that .3ds is very common, and works well with Vue and others. Also, .obj is fairly common, especially when dealing with Poser, but there are problems with it and Vue. I agree, there should be a few standard formats, instead of one for every program (or in some cases, three or four). But it will never happen - there's just too much competition. -Zak
