Highly detailed building for Lightwave?

John Groshko · Post by **John Groshko** » Tue Jun 24, 2003 11:08 pm

Does anybody know where I can download a highly detailed building(s) for Lightwave 3D?

Preferably a building(s) that looks like a mansion/chateau or something similar.

It would be greatly apperciated if somebody could tell me where to find one.

What kind of formats does Lightwave read? Only .lwo?

As far as I know; Lightwave can only import .lwo objects.

I tried importing 3DS and 3Dmax objects, but lightwave dosen't allow you to.

There might be other formats Lightwave can import. But I'm not sure which ones, if any.

Lightwave can import 3DS files, when importing the file in the dropdown menu underneath the filename, change it to "All Files". You you now select your 3DS files & import them.

Now for the bad news.

Lightwave doesn't always do a good job of converting them & buggers up many models....

I have a conversion program called "3D Exploration" this is about 90% successful. If you find a 3DS model & it's not a massive filesize, i could convert it for you...

Thanks for the help with Lightwave!

The one 3DS file I was trying to import before, must have something wrong with it. I tried importing a new 3DS file today, and it worked!

Are there any other file formats Lightwave can import, other than .lwo and 3DS?
