    Suggestions for a Royalty-Free 3D format

    Can anyone think of a widely-accepted format that is not tied to a specific company, and does not have any restrictions on its use?
    All contents of the above post that aren't somebody elses are mine, not the property of some media corporation.
    (Just a heads-up)

    I *think* the obj format isn't tied to anyone. It's pretty well known, and you can usually find an exporter for most modeling programs.

    I think we need a sticky thread about what are the best 3d modellers available.

    That would be very useful
    I don't live here any more.
