There is no way i can afford to buy 3d MAX, but i do have access to 3d Studio Viz 2.

This is a long shot, i know, but does anyone know if you can import/convert the car models and skins into Viz and render them?

Thanks

If it is possible the way to do it would be to export the current scenes from 3DS Max into a format that 3d Studio Viz 2 can import. If there is a common format between two programs it might work, it might not. Not all programs handle the same formats the same way, so success is not certain.

The other alternative is to find someone who loves 3d Studio Viz 2 so much and can write a plugin to import the CMX meshes that the Devs have made available.

Aren't VIZ and Max related to eachother? I think Viz should be able to import 3DS files, but I'm not sure.

Not sure about Viz 2, but Autodesk Viz (the new one) opens Max files.

What file options do you have in Viz 2 to open/import.
