Can models be exported to other programs like 3DS max and sketchup? Looks like a cool program

[ThreeDVIA]

@onedoomedspacemarine If you upload as a "public" model, you can download a COLLADA file, which can be used within most DCC apps.

what file format does it save in?

[ThreeDVIA]

@hannibalcannibalx All files are saved in 3DXML format, however, if you publish to 3dvia.com as a public model, you can also download as a COLLADA .dae file as well.

this program looks amazing, ten times easier than other modeling programs ive tried using. And models made with this can be made to look really realistic as games have been made with 3dvia tools. He even said this tutorial was very basic.

@mattwils5069 Thanks...and best of all, it's FREE!

Just go to 3dvia-dot-com, then select 3DVIA Shape, under the Products page to download.

You can also try free software called 3Defy.  It allows you to transform 2D photos into 3D models.

Make sure the guy at 0:11, 0:14, 0:22 shows up in every video. He makes this video fun to watch. :-)

Not commenting the video itself, but you guys really need to get a better microphone. The audio quality of the recorded video in the beginning was 10 times better.

there is a guy spying on the back 0:22 =)
