Interesting links - A HUGE, Free, Mostly 3DS Archive...

Post subject: A HUGE, Free, Mostly 3DS Archive...
I've stumbled upon another huge 3D archive, much of it modern furniture and furnishings, all free for the downloading. <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://archive3d.net/?category=0" target="_blank">http://archive3d.net/?category=0</a> <br /> <br /> Two snags-- Well, three, really... <br /> <br /> The objects come in either or both 3DS and GSM formats. The few 3DS meshes I tried only have one (1) material, so some deconstruction and editing is required for most objects. Happily, they seem modest meshings, rather than photo-real. <br /> <br /> The downloads do NOT use meaningful names. Each has a one-line string of gibberish that reads like a password-from-hell, you must remember to get the thumbnail and match it to the un-zipped / un-rar'd directory. At least the 3D files within the archive have real names... <br /> <br /> Apart from that, their server is *fast*. I collected some nice furniture, noticed a wide variety of mannequins, accessories, doors, windows, cranes etc etc. <br /> <br /> But what reads / writes .GSM format ? And what does it do ?? Irfanview claimed it as NLM, then failed to open. 3DOC shrugged. Google offered me a zillion GSM mobile phones... <br /> <br /> D'uh...

BTW I could find nothing about the .gsm format <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/dontknow.gif" alt="" /> , this is because every search string goes to mobile phones <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> ... Anyway there is the 3ds version <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" />

The *only* info I could find after exhaustive googling was at... <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://swat3.furrycat.net/gsm/gsm.html" target="_blank">http://swat3.furrycat.net/gsm/gsm.html</a> <br /> <br /> Seems GSM belongs to Gskin mesh format created by Sierrra Games... <br /> --- <br /> <br /> Um, also, several of the models that do not show materials in 3DOC do have them in Poser. I was about to unleash the Grouping tools...

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the link <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/koo-koo.gif" alt="" /> I like 3DS due to it's small file size <br /> and the objects are smooth. <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_whistle.gif" alt="" /> <br /> I keep leaving hints to Wifey <br /> for 3DS Studio -for Christmas...

Oh, you can just import them in Poser or use Blender instead ...
