in response to this thread http://forum.freegamedev.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3013, could someone convert these maya files to and open format such as .obj, .blend, etc…? http://www.box.com/s/bc571d005b61c721f327

You should be able to import them in blender.

no you can not normally, it is the binary maya file, so you need at least a trial version of maya and export it to a format like .obj

Converted .mb fiels to .dae files http://bit.ly/KvYNY4

thanks! but I can’t load the page :frowning:

Try www.blenderwho.com/blends/maya_scenes.zip

.dae and why not .obj or .blend or else? but collada / dae ist good because its a standard 3d modle format for data exchange?

8

Some of the objects in the maya files had armatures, hence use of .dae not .obj. If the op wants a .blend, I think I’ve done enough so they can import the files themselves.

Ah ok, now I understand. =)
