DE2 - what is the preferred model format?

DavidInvenio

I have been reading Wiki docs... what is the BEST model format for DE2 and beyond?
I've seen md2 which seems outdated now, and dmd, and md5.

Which is the best?

We use a cleaned up FBX format. Model may have separated meshes. The materials are not defined as it's all anyway must be overridden in a game definition files. All animations are nested in a FBX file as "takes".

Thanks for the quick reply mate! Ok I got it - FBX is the preferred format for models!
I just want to make sure that I follow the best standards!

PS: I don't even know what a "mesh" is so I guess I have a LOT of learning to do! LOL
