Exporting to 3ds Max

3ds Max can import to and export from a wide variety of industry-standard 3D file formats, as outlined in this article: 3ds Max Geometry File Formats.

ARCHLine.XP can export the model to 3Ds Max in various formats:

SKP, FBX, OBJ.

The best quality is SKP. Preserves materials, material properties, camera views. There is no triangulation in SKP export.

• SketchUp (SKP) Files
  The SketchUp importer enables direct import of scene files from SketchUp.
• Wavefront (OBJ) Files
  3ds Max can import and export the text-based (ASCII) Wavefront format OBJ. An OBJ file contains geometry descriptions, while the associated MTL file format contains material descriptions.
• Autodesk FBX Files
  FBX files provide interoperability between most 3D software, regardless of software vendor or computer platform. You can import and export files in this format with 3ds Max.
