importing 3ds into director

[twistedlogic]

Hi all, I have a .3ds model file which i would like to import into director. To do so, I have to convert it to an .obj file then to a .w3d file or go straight to a .w3d file. 3dMax doesn't seem to save as either file type (.obj or .w3d) anyone know how to convert it?

cheers.

Make sure you have the 3d max exporter plugin installed.
It comes with director.
You can read about it here, as well as download it from macromedia:
