Hey, I just started messing with Wings 3d today and exporting my sculpties to SL (thanks Natalia!!)... but still, for the most basic things I need to start from a cube, not a sphere. I know the current plug-in supports spheres only.. So, how do I make a sphere into a cube? I can't kind of make it but it's not exact and it takes forever. Anyone has an idea?

Also, while I'm at it... Can I create one project, save it, and attach it to another to make a more complex form? or does that add pieces and I can't export it afterwards?

Thanks!

The short answer is no, you can't do what you want. The longer answer is yes, you really can, but it isn't as general purpose as you probably want it to be. You can create a multi-prim sculpty in Wings if each prim has, by itself, a supported mesh size and you export the pieces one at a time, using export selected instead of export.
