I seem to recall some site that listed Safeway card numbers so that lots of people can use the same card and not have their purchases tracked... Hmmm. My mother just died two weeks ago and I have her wallet.
450 0113 0171
When you are at the register at Safeway, give them this number and tell them you left your card at home.
Enjoy!
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oops. Sorry... Excuse me, but I beilieve you are mistaken in your assumptions.
There already exist enough translators to move models bewteen packages. What we need are several "standard" deformation routines and bone standards and various motion formats. And then we need the various 3D apps to support these formats either through built-in tools or (preferably) through 3rd party tools.
Perhaps what we really need to a standard by which the above formats could be created...
*If* you are just talking about modeling, then there are some possibilities. www.wings3d.com is a free version of Nendo and I *think* it's open source. It is written in ERLANG, however.
If you are talking about the full range of 3D asset generation (models, textures, animation, etc) then there isn't much you can do.
As for Max, Lightwave (and all the others) becoming more game friendly... Doubt it. Those companies are all trying to make their 3D app "all things to all people". That was lies madness.

WTF? Did Dubya also start the Office of Homeland Video Games? Where does one go to become an "Official" video game reviewer?
