Convert cel to 3ds

Conversion of cel file format to 3ds file format ^beta

Search for cel to 3ds converter or software able to handle these file types.

Found 2 different conversion types using the same filename extensions.

Several formats actually use .cel extension so perhaps more than one cel to 3ds conversion is possible. The most likely candidate for this is for import of old Autodesk Animator FLIC files to 3ds Max, which according some sources is or at least was doable. Unfortunately, we have no other specific information for this, so perhaps reach out to the 3ds Max community for help.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned cel to 3ds. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.
