You can get from either VRML2.0 or 3D Studio R1, R2 formats to
OpenFlight using a couple of products. The OpenFlight loader for
Performer is fairly complete. The company that will be selling this
translator is:
Okino Graphics: http://www.okino.com/
http://www.okino.com/conv/exp_flt.htm
http://www.okino.com/conv/imp_flt.htm
These pages are not yet available directly from the Okino site, you can
only get to them by specifically typing in the URL.
Also the latest versions of MultiGen modeling tools include a modestly
capable 3D Studio to OpenFlight converter.
