Basic mesh, material, texture and UVW map data can be brought into Blender using the *.obj, *.dfx format where models are not animated, or alternatively using *.dae, *.fbx or *.md5 when animation import is required.ĭue to the nature of Biped objects as well as for skeletons or other 'rig' structures in particular, export from Max to a third-party format like MD5 may result in loosing some of the more complex relationship between bones or control surfaces - the loss of IK or FK control points for example, or that skeletal structures may be converted to meshes, essentially wiping out any meaning as to what the objects were originally in Max, or that bones and their respective relationship may be orientated incorrectly and/or rotate around a different set of axis points.
To import Bipeds into Blender they need to be converted into a format Blender understands. This can be an issue when there's a need to import Biped animated characters into other applications because there is no equivalent - they just don't support the data format or object type. Is there any way to create keybindings for these complex menu navigations and/or change the way 3ds Max reacts to inputs to make it more similar to Blender? I've looked online, but all I'm able to find are tutorials on how to make Blender more similar to 3ds Max, not vice versa.The Biped, or *.bip, object often used to animate characters in 3DS Max is proprietary to 3DS Max and not currently available to any other application outside one or two other offerings from Discreet.
However, I've run into a bit of a snag - after a thorough reading of the learning center, I've found that a lot of the basic actions that I've come to rely on in Blender (extruding new vertices, moving existing vertices relative to the cursor and viewport perspective, rotating the viewport around a point via mouse control, cutting polygons into multiple new faces) have either been locked behind a series of clunky menus, or reduced to a less dexterous control scheme (I'm looking at you, ViewCube). I figured it was high time for a switch, considering that 3ds Max is more commonly used in professional environments and it would be useful to know my way around the program.
I just switched over to 3ds Max for the first time after thousands of hours with Blender.
