Well if you like to built avatars for other plugins and in your own
way try VizX3D (supports X3D and VRML):

Karamba!

There is a way to export a useable mesh from avatar studio. That part
of my website is currently down for updating and re-organization so..

cut and pasted below:



Simply put the 3d mesh is stored as a rolled up ball of legs and arms.
The "Welder" Script node proforms the calculations to turn this into a
default pose or animation.

The only way to get a usable mesh from one of these Avatars is to
alter this Script so that it prints its results to the conole.

Find the line:

function G9(t){Gstart(9,t);}

and change it to:

function G9(t){Gstart(9,t);
if (firstRun) {
print ('point '+Vtx.point);
firstRun=FALSE;
}
}


Just below the line: DEF Welder Script {

add this: field SFBool firstRun

now clicking on the avatar will trigger the default (pose) animation
the first frame of which will be printed to the console as a new
pointset which can be simply pasted over the old one. You can remove
all the other code and then keep the Shape node.

One note the result only appears on the Blaxxun Console and for some
reason does not appear to work in Cortona due to the large amount of
text involved. Settings > Console

Avatar Studio 2 avs seem to work fine
in Cosmoplayer and Cortona for me.
I am not sure about Stuido 1 avs though.
