Exporter Plug-In |
The authoring tool needs an exporter plug-in that allows a scenegraph to be converted to a Shockwave 3D§ scenegraph and written to a .w3d file. The plug-in is based on a class derived from an exporter base class template in the authoring tool's SDK, which describes the properties of the exporter plug-in. It will instantiate the MAXExporter object when a user selects .w3d as the format for the export of a scene.
See MAX_S3D_Plugin.
