I don't know about newer releases, but use this 3D Object Converter Dev build and export as Caligari trueSpace ASCII (*.cob). It was successful with the samples I tested. There are a number of programs that can import the *.cob format including AccuTrans 3D which can convert it to Wavefront obj etc.

Thank you for the reply, but I it seems a lot of download links are down or the software isn't free

The links work fine here and both programs are free to use. I wouldn't have posted them if you had to buy anything since you said you were looking for a free conversion solution.

EDIT
I just tested the Portable v5.30 here and it'll export *.cob too. The 3DOC you already have will likely work as well. If you have trouble downloading files from Gamefront you could try the software website instead.

They don't seem to be working very well for me. :cry: Oh, well, I suppose I'll just try to remap the textures.

What exactly isn't working for you? Please explain what you are doing and give details on the steps you are taking.

I'll just leave this here, not sure if it can do the formats you need but it probably can handle just about everything out there and it does a very good job of it.

Noesis doesn't support the EaW *.alo format.
