With the development of computer technology, many researchers focuses on the vitual reality techniques. Regenerating complex 3D models in computers is the foundation of vitual reality. OpenGL can link both vitual reality in computers and 3D models. Using OpenGL, the complex 3D models can be regenerated in the vitural reality vividly. This paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of both OpenGL and 3Dmax. Taking their advantages, a method of regenerating 3Dmax models in OpenGL was proposed. The results show that this method and regenerate the complex 3D models conveniently.
