Description

Wak Exporter is a small plugin that allows to export a 3D model from 3D Studio MAX version 7/8/9 32-bit. Wak is available in two versions, free (XML) and not free (O3MF - contact me: jegx (AT) ozone3d.net). The 3D XML model format generated by the Wak plugin is very simple and then it's quite easy to code a loader for this format. For the moment, only Demoniak3D can load this format.

The 3D model format created by Wak exports the following informations:

• number of meshes and materials
• for each material: material name, ambiant, diffuse, specular components as well as the textures.
• for each mesh: mesh name, vertices and faces lists.
• for each vertex: position, normal, UV map unity 0 up to unity 7 (then up to 8 texture coordinates par vertex).
• for each face: vertex index list (3 vertices per face) and material index

A XML sample is provided with the plugin (Plane.XML): it's a simple plane with a ground texture and a lightmap as shown in the following image:

At the end of the export, Wak displays the following dialog box:

Wak Exporter is currently in alpha version, so don't hesitate to send me your feedbacks (at jegx AT ozone3d. DOT net) in order I improve it.
