I've posted a few of my Bryce models in free stuff over the past year as OBP format. The latest was a light saber.
I got the following message today from another artist:
"You posted a free Bryce object...the lightsaber...why did you post it under the Bryce free stuff when Bryce doesn't recognize that file type. It is saved as a *.obp file and the only thing close to that that Bryce recognizes is *.obj. Every other file type is either *.3ds *.ele *.lwv. It needs to be saved as the correct file type and reposted. Thought you should know."
I replied:
"Thank you for your post.
It was modelled in Bryce from primitives. And exported from the object preset library as an object preset .OBP.
To get it into Bryce, open up the object preset library and then use the import function there to read it directly into the library.
OBJ is a wavefront format. I'm not aware of any way of exporting a Bryce primitive model as OBJ format. But will investigate."
So, I'm investigating. Am I losing it? Am I wrong? I thought OBP was THE Bryce format? Is it possible to export a primitive Bryce model in OBJ format and I've missed this all this time?
