hello all, I wanted to know if at the server level, can LL turn on the following file extentions: DSX, DSF, and OBJ. If they do not have this capability, would a conversion tool be needed to be built. Or is it a question of LL not having enough server power. Thanks in advance for any responses.

no outside models can be imported its not a question of server power its the end user armatures already use megapixel textures for jewelry, litterly hundereds of thousands of polys for basic hairstyles ect this throws most ppls computer equipment to the max (dunno about you but i dont have 2gb of ram on my video card) now imagine the same irresponsible ppl making 200,000 poly gold rings with a 15 mb obj file to download

part 2 of your question
yes there are a cupple scripts that allow you to go from modeler to world one for blender 3d max, and i think maya
they export the model to a txt file, which can be copied and pasted inworld to a boulder script
problem is they convert each triangle to 1 prim, which becomes extreamly heavy
theres also a "offline" biulder for blender that uses sl prim properties, and of course sculpt maps, which works simmilar to nurbs
