Can you let us know if it supports COLLADA? You might want to try the options, and use .dae as filename.
Thanks,
Erwin

I have just tested the PhysX Plugin, and it seems to work well.
I tried exporting a simple scene and tested with your ColladaDemo. The relative position of the objects seemed right, though I had some problems with the camera.
I have not tested the plugin with my own application yet, however.

Hi Erwin,

The plug-in doesn't work. I had already installed Ageia system software 8.02.12 and SDK core 2.8.0. Then I tried all three files PhysXPlugin_rev9_for_3dsMax9_physx270.exe, PhysXPlugin_rev9_for_3dsMax9_physx272.exe, and PhysXPlugin_rev9_for_3dsMax9_physx273.exe. But neither of them works. The error is "3D max is not found. Do you want to install this plug-in any way"? I already installed 3D Max under directory C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 9. Even I installed it, it will show error when loading pxplugin.dll.

Could you help me with that?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Thanks a lot for reply. My teammate told me that he can use that plug-in to export physics information. I may try to validate it later and let you know the result.

Blender has some COLLADA 1.4 physics support, as Phyton plugin, not sure about Lightwave.

This open source 3ds Max 7,8 and 9 PhysX plugin might have COLLADA support:

Can you let us know if it supports COLLADA? You might want to try the options, and use .dae as filename.
Thanks,
Erwin

I need that exporter too. One possible is to convert 3DMax file to Maya and then use Maya plug-in but it is not a clean method.

Btw, whether XSI or Blender supports Physics of COLLADA?

Any ideas?

3DSMax physics Collada Exporter ?

2007-07-17T08:50:41+00:00

Hi everybody,

Is there any COLLADA Exporter for 3DSMax 8 or 9 which export collada file filled with physics data? I know a Max Exporter exists for 3DSMax 7 ( the one in this forum, from September 2005 ). But I am looking for a plug in which is working with the 3DS 8 or 9.

ColladaMax from the Feeling Software currently does not support physics data.

[quote]There is no support for ColladaPhysics at the moment.[/quote]

Is there a way to have the library_physics_scene in the collada file ?

Thanks,
