- If you're on (or have access to) an Amiga system, then you may want to check
- out Vertex, my shareware ($40) 3D object editor/converter. It will read
- Wavefront .obj files and save them in Imagine, Sculpt 3D, Lightwave
- RayShade, GEO and 3D Professional file formats. While not perfect, it does
- correctly read the wavefront geometry from the file, and you can modify
- smoothing and face colors right in Vertex.
-
- This probably sounds like a sales pitch,it is kind of;^),
- want to take everything I say with a grain of salt. There are demos of the
- program floating around (like on Fred Fish 727), to give you an idea of wha
- it's all about.
-
- You may also want to look into T3Dlib, or something like that, which is also
- Amiga shareware package by Glenn Lewis. I don't know Glenn, but I here the
- program will convert to-from Imagine file formats and nff/off.
-
- Hope this helps,
