question about mesh file format

[laoyun]

What mesh file formats does bullet support? For example, if I want to model a tree as triangle mesh shape, what format should I export from other software?

Thanks,

What 3d modeler do you plan to use?

The best format to use with Bullet is the new .bullet format. The Maya Dynamica plugin and a modified Blender can export to this format.

Other supported formats are .obj, COLLADA .dae or Quake 3 .bsp.
Thanks,
Erwin

Thanks Erwin.

I will have an OBJ file exported from MAX. Does bullet have a function to load the file directly only by giving the OBJ filename?

Thanks.

Found it in the demo applications.
Thanks.
