[illunara]

Hi everybody
How can i convert an object's position and rotation into Max's coordinates? Thanks

[Justin Israel]

Does that mean in z-up?

Hi Justin
Yup, Z-Up.

Here is a post that describes how to convert between Maya and Max by multiplying by a rotation matrix

Thank Justin
But how come they know the matrices of Maya inside max and vice-versa?

I'm not sure I understand the question (and maybe someone else does). It isn't knowledge of max within Maya and Maya within Max. It is just the process of converting from a Y up to Z up coordinate system, by doing math.
