Simple mesh format

Iam new to OpenGL. I wanted to know a simple mesh format to load from a file and render.the minimum data is sufficient.some vertex data and some texture information.at this stage i don’t require any animations.
can anybody suggest me some thing.

.obj (lightwave) & .ms3d (milkshape 3d)
there is also a ascii version of the ms3d format and an opengl loader on their website.

thanks vexator…

can you please suggest, where can i find some free ms3d & obj format terrains.

download the ms3d trial and create them yourself. ms3d ships with two terrain tools and it can also export to .obj :slight_smile:

ms3d ascii loader:
