I have Wings3D on Windows8 but I'd rather not use that.
Is there anything on IRIX that will export FBX..? Suppose its too new.
I guess I could go Wavefront OBJ to network share and import and re export but each transformation risks losing something.

If possible I would use something like iges, step, sat or stl files. Those are the most common in industry, where a little "glitch" in the model means several hundred (or thousands) of dollars down the toilet. There are Irix applications that will read those.

Blender can export FBX, I would assume it can do so on IRIX though disclaimer-wise I've never used Blender on IRIX...

Just checked, the Blender we have is not new enough to support FBX :(

Maybe getting a new B to run would be a good project for the relaxed and happy Mr P :D

obj shouldn't lose anything if your geometry is correct.
anyway the important question is from what to what do you wanna convert? programs i mean.
