I've not had much luck using the osg plug-in for Lightwave and I was kind of hoping that I could use Collada (since Lightwave is moving to that in The Core), but I've never thought about using fbx. Right now I'm using mostly Creator 3.2 for simulation models. I like the hierarchy that Open Flight has and its well supported in OSG. I’ve trended to move away from building using another modeler and finalizing it on creator unless it a rather compacted model - most of what I do is rather symbolic. :-< RANT ALARM: :-< To be frank, I'm thinking about dumping Lightwave in favor of using Maya and/or Mondo for my content development – and not just to expand my tool set! I’ve been a devoted Lightwave user for ten years now and I’ve loved using it! However, I’m beginning to feel rather silly lately holding the torch for Newtek and whats turning out to be their rather bumbling Core project. I saw a lot of promise in Lightwave Core, but I kind of figured that they should have had something more concrete done by now - given that they have been riding on the fiscal backs of their most devoted users for nearly a year now and yet, no real product in site! Not that I have much love for Autodesk ether! END OF RANT! :D Hay, have any of you tried to using Blender for OSG models? Just wondering! ------------------------ D Glenn (a.k.a David Glenn) - Join the Navy and See the World ... from your Desk! ------------------ Read this topic online here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=27295#27295 _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
