I am a 3d CG artists by trade and have many files of furniturte, houses and cars that i would love to upload into my projects in SL

I confess to being sooo new to SL I am green to the gills, but I still want to know how I can upload other files (like .3ds format, dxf and others) and what is involved in so doing.

and if so then which types so that I can go about translating files?

can anyone please advise me?

Hey Nicky, there isn't a built-in way to do this, but two people you may want to talk to, very knowledgeable in coming up with Resident-created ways to do this, are Jeffrey Gomez and Tateru Nino.

For example, this "Offline Builder" thread by Jeffrey:

As we're a Resident-created world, this sort of ingenuity is pretty remarkable!
