 Do you mean what to use to convert .MOD files?  With 3D Studio Max?

	I have Max but it can't open .mod files to my knowledge. I have an app that can convert .mod files to .lwo and vice-versa but LW7 wont open the converted files.Quote:

 I have Modviewer but that does not save the files - I have to use a screen grabber (Hypersnap).
 
 Aren't there any editors that can handle .mods. GMAX doesn't either.

 Elowan - Try searching through the SFB forums, I believe that the .mod files used are actually created with a 3D Studio Max plug-in.  I thought that the plug-in had been made available to the public almost a year ago.
 Otherwise look for the program 3D exploration - it has to open lightwave objects and save them as a 3d Studio Max file.

	I appreciate the lead. But am not familiar with SFB. I did a search on that and got a German radio station among other things.Quote:

 As to 3D Exploration - it's now called Deep Exploration and I have it. I was not aware that .mod files are/were compatible with 3D Max.
 
 Do you mean GMAX? It's strange that GMAX will not open .max files but will .mod files?

 SFB = Sender Freies Berlin?, probably not
 SFB = Star Fleet Battles?, more likely
