Default GBX file conversion

Hi. I was wondering how I could convert files with the GBX file format. I've looked on Google but all I found was a viewer. Thanks.

What program is the GBX format for? And are you trying to convert files to that format or from that format to another? (though I'd guess it's the first)

It's a game mod format and I'm trying to convert it to either LWO, 3DS or OBJ. I'm trying to convert this model here:

Ah, I see. That explains why it sounds obscure.

My suggestion would be to start trying some converters:

http://www.3dlinks.com/3D_Converters.cfm

Most are "free" (though to get a full version with more formats, you do have to enter a registration code.) But I'd suggest sorting them by rating and checking out some of the top rated ones. Most of the "free" ones will at least convert to .obj, but I'm not sure about GBX. But they should have supported formats listed on the sites.

Nothing in the converters. It must be a really obscure format. I did read something about it being a gerber format, whatever that is.

That sucks, dude. Unfortunately, I know very little about converting except that I try to avoid it whenever possible.
