# Export GLB/GLTF from 3DS Max

GLTF Models can be exported from the 3D software [3ds Max](https://www.autodesk.in/products/3ds-max/overview) using a third party script - [babylon.js](https://doc.babylonjs.com/resources/3dsmax#how-to-install-the-3ds-max-plugin) GLTF Exporter.

Here is the complete [documentation](https://doc.babylonjs.com/resources/3dsmax/) on the babylon.js exporter for 3ds Max.

After installing babylon.js, a new menu button will appear in your 3ds Max. Clicking on it will bring up this screen.

You can export either GLTF/GLB format. The editor supports both formats. Select one format and select your export folder and then click export.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.gmetri.com/guidelines-compatibility/guidelines/asset-guidelines/3d-modelling-guidelines/export-gltf-from-3ds-max.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
