Still, I would love to be able to import max files directly to Blender.Developers of 3DtoAll has released the MaxToBlender, new exporting plugin which can transfer scene from 3ds Max to Blender for rendering “in two clicks”. As soon I get my hands in a 3ds Max 2010 I will test the script, with old projects of mine. If you have a 3ds Max installation and want to test the script, fell free to share your thoughts on the comments of the article. One of the biggest uses for this type of script will be with the reuse of material from old projects, if you are migrating from 3ds Max to Blender, and to use 3d models from furniture libraries in Blender projects. I’m not sure exactly how the script converts data from mental ray to Blender, but it’s on the description. According to Silvio, the script is even able to deal with mental ray settings. If you have a big architectural visualization project created as an animation, you won’t lose the camera paths and all the setup. Since a lot of new Blender users come from a 3ds Max background, this type of script will be a great help for those users. You may remember Silvio from the unofficial YafaRay exporter script for Blender 2.50. Here is an example of how the script works: For instance, we can import hierarchies and animation. To help with the import/export from 3ds Max to Blender, a Blender user called Silvio Falcinelli just created a set of two scripts that can export a 3ds Max scene to OBJ, and then import that same scene to Blender 2.50 without lose much data. The ideal scenario would be if we could import “*.max” files to Blender, but the format is proprietary and closed, which makes the creation of a script very unlikely.

How good would be to be able to import and export scenes from 3ds Max to Blender? I mean, with all the attributes and even animation. Even in my classroom I have a few students that have to use both Blender and 3ds Max because of their jobs as interns in architectural offices, or animation studios.

I still know a lot of architects and 3d artists that uses mostly 3ds Max for their visualization projects.
