Attached Link: DMI 3D Cars

Thanks..I finally have a Cadillac..;) The linklist is worth it alone...appreciate it.

Out of the whole list, the single one car I want, the Lotus Supra Seven, is a dead link!  :-(

What are you guys using to convert these .lwo files so that will import into Bryce. I am unable to import .lwo files since my download Bryce 6.0 back last year. :^(

Bryce should be able to import them without trouble. File -> Import Object -> an open dialog box appears and you should be able to navigate to the target file and open it from there.

Nope, not since I downloaded Version 6.0 last year. My 5.5 imported them "No Problem", I reported it at DAZ and never got an answer and then went to the forums and got a bunch of hogwash that didn't work either :^(  Man I want to use some of them cars bad, but hey, I guess not!!!

That looks really cool : ^ (

Hrm, ... i don't know what to say on that.. sounds like a glitch. Have you tried to install that Bryce on a second machine?

My Bryce 5 likes to crash randomly whenever I'm importing a .DXF file.. even if it's a font object from elefont. But not all my machines are configured the same, and on some there's no crashing.

I just tested with B6.1 and I'm getting a "invalid format".....  tested with another car model and it came in fine. Maybe some of the models are glitched.

There were a couple that were glitched.

Did you install the 6.1 Update?

Me? Yes... downloaded several times on different machines, etc. The Jaguar 1935 one I was testing the import. I think that file is glitched.

i posted the link to this site last week.

It is a great collection, not all of the cars load directly into bryce but about 60-70% work fine.
I still havent decided what im gonna do with the cars yet, but I will eventually make a bryce scene using one/some of them.

Thanks!! I remebered seeing this thread, I looked for it and couldn't find it....but I saved the link.

Thanks Again Q4.

Thats the place we are talking about, some of the models are bad. I get the same error; "Invalid Format". I opened it in Vue and only parts are there. PArts like the steering wheel and Sterring sector. It's the BMW Z3 & 4. I have since I started this thread uninstalled Bryce 6.1 and reinstalled it. At first I thought it did not help till Death said some of the models were flawed, so I tried other and they open fine in my Bryce now after reinstalation Yipee!!! But some of the models on that site are bad. : ^ (

It might be their server. I noticed last night I clicked to download the BMW one I rendered above and noticed the download dialog box said "10% of..... " and really zoomed. It downloaded so quickly I was suspicious. So I downloaded again over the old file and watched the percentage guage move more slowly to 100%. This happened twice of the four models I got last night. Maybe their server is dying.

thelby, will the crossroads ap convert the files to 3ds or obj?

What is the crossroads app ???

thats really nice indeed!

@Thelby...someone mentioned it in the 3DC forum.  It's squirreled away in the Bryce Nook or I can send it to you.  Very small ap for changing file formats.  The 'about' says that it can be shared as long as it's not altered in any way.

Unfortunately it doesn't do LWO.
Here's what it does:
Opens:
3DS, DXF, POV, INC, RAW, COB, WRL, OBJ, NFF

Saves as:
3DS, T3D, B3D, DXF, .C, SMPL, .X, V2.2 POV, V3.0 POV, RAW, COB, V1.0 WRL, V2.0 WRL, OBJ, NFF

I wonder if you can open it in Hexagon or Cinema, etc and export them as something else?

Yeah, I didn't think about Hex and I have that, Let me try and I will get back to ya!!!
