I’m sure this is a recurring theme but, I really want to get a modeling package for loading…you guessed it, models into my apps!
I was thinking about starting with milkshape 3d and then purchasing either 3dsmax or lighwave later on. I tried blender for a while but did not like it. Is milkshape even worth my time??? This is a tough one for me as both 3dsmax and lightwave are really expensive!
First, a correction: wavefront? not lightwave…right?
Second: I have looked at gmax (and it’s tempest interface) and it’s pretty sweet but, as mentioned, it only reads/writes it own file format which is why it’s free, otherwise no one would buy 3dsmax! So, we’re back to the initial question: is milkshape worth my time or am I going to need to bite the bullet and throw down for a “professional” modeling package?
