To my knowledge, you need a plugin for maya called Collada. You load that plugin, export the model in a *.dae format, then add a path to it inside Flash/PV3D.

  • Thank you for the answer. I have been created my model using separate nurbs. Did i need to convert the nurbs group it or something? – Apollon1954 Nov 21 '10 at 16:15
  • I can't quite remember how exactly I did it, but I think that the Collada plugin requires you to convert NURBS to Poly and then export to a .dae file. What i'm saying is PV3D needs a poly model but I don't know if Collada converts it into a poly-mesh so try doing it yourself. – Vuk Nov 21 '10 at 16:22
  • Can i ask if i can't find any online resourses to help me with the coding in order to import it to papervision3D. I already change it to *.dae format and i want to import tis to papervision3D. – Apollon1954 Nov 21 '10 at 20:05
