Preparing 3D models for WPF
-
Hello All, What tools do you use to create 3D models and export them to XAML? Is XAML the only format that WPF can accept for specifying 3D geometry? Is there a XAML exporter plugin available for 3ds Max?
Best regards, BB http://bartoszbien.com

Don't know. Need to contact them. You "could" go from 3ds Max to ZAM3D to XAML.

I use Cinema4D, 3DS Max and Maya. Although I'm looking into Zam3D.

Yes - well, you could write your own internal 3D methods that interact with the 3D engine directly, but that would be defeating the whole purpose of XAML.

It's not exactly a plugin, but you can always look at this[^] for simpler models.
Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.
