Hi.. which is the best way/format to export files from rhino to 3dmax?
I have tried to export 3ds, dwg, dxf, obj.. let's say that I've tried all, but doesn't work the way I like.
Models are welded together, there are missing some parts or shapes are just something what they shouldn't be.
Is there any good way to do it?

what help?
I don't use max... so I don't know it will work as good as in maya, but when I was exporting from rhino to maya, I used to use iges or sat
those format will allow you to export nurbs instead of meshes

FYI npower make a power tranlator for max that will import IGES perfectly, and also Rhino 3DM.
doesn't come cheap but if that's what you do it is more than worth it.

Did you try Moi3D ?
http://www.moi3d.com it exports the most sexy meshes i've seen so far, it can't be compared to nurbs to poly meshers like Rhino's and such, they're just crap.
