yes. hello.
I'm a bunny here, first time post and all. yay.
anyhow.. i have a brief question. Ive been learning CGI using Cinema4D, but i want to move up to lightwave 6. To me, the easiest way for me to learn it would be to import in some of the models ive built in C4D, and see how i can alter them and retexture them etc. but lightwave refuses to let me do this. How, oh how can i import in other filetypes into the lightwave 6 modeller, or layout bits?
I've been trying for a couple of weeks now, I've asked on other didgital forums, but all to no avail. I tell you, its doing my head in. la.
thanks

lightwave imports .3ds .obj .dxf natively,
if you can get your stuff into any of these
formats, all should be well.
