There is a videogame out there that has released some of their models. Unfortunately, they're in Maya format, and I certainly cannot afford that package! I have sniffed around and have not been able to find a utility that converts Maya (*.mb) files into a format that Poser can import. I anyone knows of such a utility, I would really appreciate hearing of it! Thanks in advance!

Which Game? Have you tried to ask them directly? I've check "3d Explorer". I can import tons of stuff from Max to Quake files. But, No Maya! Maybe if you asked them nicely, they could get it to you in .obj(Since it's originally from Alias, the Creators of MAYA!) Let me know the outcome... Marc

Hi, Marque! Oh! Silly me! I too want to know the URL! Check a message from me higher up, if you like AMAZING 3D Illustrations... This guy has some of the best "Lighting" effects have seen in a while! Stupid Question? What does "lol" mean?? I know, where have i been! Just found out from my son what "WIP" means... Hey! I'm a dinosaur! Didn't have Nintendo or tv for that matter when i was young(Just RoofTops, Trees & Lots of Imagination...) Marc

If you want to either direct me to the models or send them this way, I can convert them and send them on. I've got Maya on my machine at work, so a conversion shouldn't be a problem Machreth

http://vampirevault.ign.com...In the downloads section. The game is "Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption". I've already found a converter, but many others may enjoy playing with these...
