Hi Yannada, unfortunately the 3DM translator that you are referring to there is very limited - it only extracts polygon mesh data out of a 3DM file and does not read any NURBS data from 3DM files.

Since MoI only stores NURBS data in a 3DM file and not polygon data, that translator actually does not work with 3DM files saved from MoI.


> And if not could Moi users have a similar translator?

There is actually a translation method already available fo MoI users - you can export from MoI as a .lwo file - that .lwo file can then be imported directly into Modo.

Modo is a polygon modeling package so it is difficult for it to deal with NURBS information directly in a plug-in. So that's why the translation method is to use MoI's meshing method to convert it to polygon mesh data.
