I know it's possible to import models from surten 3D formats (or whatever it's called). And so today I downloaded one of the free 3D models from 3dattic.com. Because I never ever worked in 3D before I have no idea what format is best. So I downloaded the 'country workshop' in dxf format. I couldn't get that to work. It wasn't a zip file and I couldn't open it in Vue. So then I tried the lwo format. I managed to import the workshop, but no textures, and the model was one piece, so I couldn't put any texture on the different parts myself. Now I'm trying the obj format. Apparently with this one I can texture the different parts. So I'm going to try some things with that. My question is though. What format is best for importing in Vue. And why do some models not work the way they should? In the Vue guide it says it supports all those formats. Thank you, Rynn.
