Hi,
i have 60,000 colors on the same number of meshes. i need to export them to 3ds max. the VRML format version 2 is not importing in 3ds max correctly with the color information. maybe there is a limit in numbers of colors into it.
this image is 840 separate meshes with different colors on them. i exported this model in VRML version 2 and vertex color enabled. there was no problem in importing to 3Ds max, except the scaling problem.
