preferably while maintaining UV mapping.

p.s. if anyones bothered, i could add an .obj loader to the model converter easily enuf. anyone bothered?

p.p.s ive downloaded the truespace 3.2 sdk and specifications for the cob format. I'll have a look at building that into the engine/ model converter sometime in the next coupla weeks.

Download a program called "3D Exploration"

Yeh, 3d Exploration (I believe the latest version is called Deep Exploration) will handle pretty much anything you throw at it and chuck anything you like out the other side.

Zar, I know this is way late, however I can convert any DXF or DWG to a 3ds file. I have the latest version of Autocadd. Let me know if you still need the help.
