I have found a basic [very basic] 3D editor for the Mac. But a nice thing about it is that it is free!!

It is called Misfit Model 3D: Download the [experimental] Mac version with the click of your mouse Mac users: http://naranja.umh.es/~atg/mm3d120final.pkg.zip

you will also need this program to run the editor: http://naranja.umh.es/~atg/QtMac335-Installer-Panther.pkg.zip

The only problem is getting the files to match the programs file formats to be able to edit them. You need to convert the .MDX files to .OBJ / .MM3d / .MD2 [i think those are the more popular formats it uses.]

If anyone knows a converter that works on the Mac post here please!

Have fun!:grin:

Jw, the link for the MM3d says final in it, so is it finished now? Or still a Beta?
Also, I know of a drop tool that turns your files into .Mpq archives, but not the other way.

It is not a final version I believe. It says experimental Mac OS X version on the site, http://misfitcode.com/misfitmodel3d/main.html , and it looks as if the creator plans to keep updating it.

God
its eayers to use blender to make .mdx files then use that tool
(go vista )
Most Mac user do not enjoy working with windows, however there is blender for the mac i just found out....
Here's a dl link: http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.44/blender-2.44-OSX-10.4-py2.3-i386-bz.dmg im not sure how it work, I havent got around to really testing it yet.

Thanks for looking.

The reason why Macs don't get viruses is because not even hackers care for them.. They'd rather get something worthwhile like a Windows.
And there are viruses for Mac btw.
But anyways, Blender is supposedly the best free modeling program, though I found it difficult to use. It can export to a 3dsmax readable file, which can export to .mdx, but... not worth it in the end. Get a PC.

Lol, true all true, donut. Windows IS a lot easier to hack into though lets be honest.

Anyway lets get back on topic here, we can argue about OS's later...

Blender is INCREDIBLY hard to learn much less use. We will just have to wait till a decent War3 editor is ported to OS X.:sad:

But on the brighter side we have the awesome Hive community to share their wickedly awesome models with all of us Mac users.:grin:
