Today we would like to introduce you to a fabulous tool our forum member seith, along with Amorilia, is making called MayaCGF (http://www.crymod.com/thread.php?threadid=20019). Previously known as Maya Exporter, this tool will allow people using the powerful 3D modeling and animation package known as Maya (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_(software))to export their work to Sandbox2 and Crysis.
Current Features

Based on Amorilia's excellent PyFFI Python Module (http://www.crymod.com/thread.php?threadid=20922)
Full support for polygonal geometry.
Full Normal and UV export support.Current Performance
Currently it takes 28 secs to export a mesh with 24000 Triangles. Keep in mind this is alpha performance and most likely there will be a dramatic performance boost once MayaCGF has been optimized.
