How to export Vertex Weights ?

Which software can I use to export the bones
and vertex 's weight values easily like
MakeShape3D ? MikeShape3D doesn’t support
vertex blend .
I made a skeleton system which support
skeleton animation.But I want to get
the vertex weight to deform the mesh.
One vertex can connect with 1 or 2 bones.
If a vertex connect with 2 bones, so I need
two weight values . But I don’t want to write
plug-in for 3dsmax.too boring. Only ASCII
file is enough.

3dsmax, with a custom export module oughta
do it just fine.

Which is more boring:

  1. writing a 3dsmax plug-in
  2. not having the data you need
    ?

well…

where can I download
this kind of plug-in ,to export
the vertex weights from 3dsmax ?
or buy one ? I know 3dsmax very little…
