Here is AndrewGore(OTB) iges Sluggo body converted into several different formats.

Format Types:
3ds
Ai
asc
ASE
cob
dwg
dxf
fbx
lwo
max (Version 5.1)
mtl
obj
off
raw
stl
w3d
wrl
x
xsi

All of those formats. I am going to post it onto our server at endlessquests. So if it gets a crappy download speed, we run several things off our server, including netmeeting software. For video conferences. It gets priority, so if you try to download during one of our meetings, dont be suprised if you get a 2K download rate.

Anyway, here is the link:
Sluggo Body in Multiple formats

Its 962K, in rar format. If you dont have winrar, get it free at www.winrar.com.

wholy wow! Thanks, that is GREAT!

EDIT- Hey, these all basically look like part of the bottom is missing. It's got missing surfaces or something. Possibly I'm just not seeing it right, but I've tried everything that works in both Rhino and Solidworks, and none of them look right. I still would love to see a good .3dm file. Thanks.

That is exactly how they are from his file. I am going to close one up as if it were the real deal. And redo that entire rar file. So give me a few days to get it done. I do this kind of stuff for a living, so I kind of get tired of looking at my comp screen all day. But I will do my best to have it redone complete, and re rared within the next few days.

Thanks

Sorry to say this, but the orignal Sluggo body, the mesh anyway, looks like crap. Nothing lines up, and it will require alot of rework to get it straight. So I am thinking of just building a new mesh, to specs. As soon as someone gets me the specs for the body, I will get a new mesh made for it. If I remember right, someone already made something that showed the deminsions somewhere, I just dont remember where I seen it at. But if someone can point me to that file, or spec sheet. I will make a new mesh, that will be much easier to work with. I can export to like 20 of the most common formats. So I am sure I can get a workable mesh for everyone to use, that knows how to work inside a 3d program. I use 3ds Max 5. I convert with Deep Exploration, so I have plenty of formats I can make it. I just need those specs. If someone from AGD would be so kind as to send them to me. I will get started on a new workable mesh as soon as I get the specs.

Thanks
Rob

P.S. For some of you begginer modelers. I can even make it a gmax file if you need it in that format. But if you are using gmax, then you can just import a 3ds file, just as easy.

that's great. I mostly just tinker around with Rhino a little, self taught. I've made a few barrels, valve ideas... basically putting something down to get a picture of what I'm thinking. I'd like to try something a bit more complex, and the sluggo looked like a good canvas to use.

Too bad none of these files can be modified in Rhino, from what I know.

At least I got Lightwave and will have Solidworks to fall back on.

[Ice-Child]

First off, why cant they be modified in Rhino ? I dont know, I have never used Rhino. But if it is because of file type, then let me know. I have other tools I can convert with. So I am sure I can come up with more file types if someone needs them. I should probably just do the body, in like 3ds, seeing as how almost everything can use a 3ds. Save on download as well.

Anyway, let me know why you cant work with it, and we will see what we can do.

The objects inside the file do not respond to commands such as BooleanDeifference. I can open and view the files, but they cannot be modified.

Maybe there is a setting that I have to change... but I doubt it.

Rhino format is : 3dm

[big echo]

does any one know who makes these

[big echo]

[homis]

Bump, I would love to find out who makes those bodies as well.

That's the 'Dallara', made by DeadlyWind aka 'nicad' here on AO. Check out this thread for pricing.

DeadlyWind also makes the 'Karta', which is pictured below.
