cbcarch Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 How to export to OBJ from 3dsMax with FBX materials from Revit and retain materials/maps? Workflow: Generate model in Revit 2011; export to FBX; FBX into 3dsMax Design 2011; export to OBJ. Need maps intact on OBJ model. Anyone know of a script or plug-in for Max that can do this? any help appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creasia Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Revit materials are converted into Mental Ray Arch+Design materials in import, so the "Material Converter v0.98b" script found at http://www.scriptspot.com/3ds-max/scripts/tags/converter can convert all (or the majority) of your materials to scanline, which exports out of max into an obj format. Happy file conversions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbcarch Posted April 8, 2011 Author Share Posted April 8, 2011 Thanks for the reply. We are using Revit 2011, which uses Mental Ray Protein 2 and the new Autodesk Materials; as does 3dsMax Design 2011. The Arch & Design Materials are from older versions, so most likely the script will not work. But we'll give it a try anyway! cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
