Exporting 3dStudio sequences to Wavefront .obj

Contributing to HipArt

With minor modification, this method should work for any export plugin you can acquire for 3ds.

First, download and install the max2obj plugin.

Edit and execute the following max script:

for t in 0f to 100f do
(
        slidertime=t
        timestring = t as string
        filename = "frame" + timestring + ".obj"
        exportFile filename #noprompt
)

You should now have one .obj file for each frame in your 3ds sequence, or 100 files.
