Sword Creation Software Question Windows 8.1

Hello, I was wondering if anyone with windows 8.1 as their OS would be able to tell me which version of 3DS works for them and if there is service packs needed. I searched online but couldn't find the answer. I figure someone on here has 8.1 and is creating objects with 3DS or similar software and could tell me what they use/did. I have two projects for the game needing it. Thanks a million!

Use 2012 at the latest, or use a different workflow.

You'd be better off using Blender if you are a hobbiest.

3DS Max 2015 works fine on my windows 8.1 pc

Coldhands, blender is more difficult to use than 3ds max, especially for a beginner.

They say max is easier to learn. I've never used blender, but it is possible.

So how did you get your files ready for export if the pluggin for VMD/VFT export is only for 2012 and later? I've gotten this far, have files, textures, etc. but what are people using if they have Windows 8 and can not use the 2012 version? Is there a way around this?

Is it not working?

ed : you should be using vtfedit for creating .vtf textures.
