Thanks n008.
Here's a small example:
It can load DirectX and 3DS files and convert it to a DirectX file (DirectX2DirectX is pretty stupid, but hey, it makes my point).
You can add some more formats, but I can say DBO files do not work.
sync on : sync rate 100
fromfile$ = _open_save("DirectX|*.X|3D studio|*.3DS", "Open", get dir$(), "X", 1)
if fromfile$ = "" then end
load object fromfile$, 1
tofile$ = _open_save("DirectX|*.X", "Save", get dir$(), "X", 0)
ExportDirectX(1, tofile$)
`Delete and load
delete object 1
load object tofile$, 1
do
yrotate object 1, wrapvalue(object angle y(1) + 0.2)

loop
`ExportDirectX(obj, filename$)
`obj: object to export.
`filename$: file to export.
`Returns 1 if succeeded, 0 if file exist or filename$ is not a DirectX file.
