Lip service

[laserguy]

Can I import the models into Magpie Pro for lip sinking, has anyone treaded this ground? What would be my best option?

Never heard of Magpie, and not sure what you mean by models, I assume you mean 3d models from 3dfa but you have not really made yourself very clear.

Blanius,
Magpie is a lip syncing program that has many cool features including the ability to automatically sync you artwork What a time saver I tested it by doing a 3D model and with a 5 min speech it took all of 15min from start to finish including cleaning it up a little because it has the coolest tweening features anyway you can check it out here

I need to find out if the models can be esported as LWO, 3DS or OBJ format, as those are the ones that
> Magpie Pro can read.

short answer is No this would not work.

Thanks for dashing all my hope and dreams
just kidding
I was hoping there was a way to do this compleatly vector based
"Actually" I was being cheap I don’t want to have to upgrade my 3Dmax + buy a import filter

You can do it all vector from 3DFA, go to my site. Sorry, not trying to advertise, just helping. This is why I made the following program. To keep all animations vector based in flash.
