What file type would it be saved to, and what other software packages could it be opened in or imported into?

well i was thinking something that was universal, something that could be opened in maya 3dmax, and all others, so it could be multiple different file types

Really a job for a small addon which shouldn't be too hard to do

Yeah, this is super easy.

I made a material->json->material script (minus nodes & images for now) without too much trouble.
