Export curves

Hi Alexito, MoI v1 can export curves to 3DM, IGES, and AI formats (2D only for AI).

For MoI v2 also adds curve export to STEP, SAT, and SKP format exports.

Even though it is technically possible to store true curves in an .obj file, it is very rarely supported. The vast majority of programs only expect to see polygon mesh data in an .obj file, so MoI does not try to export other kinds of objects into it, only meshes.

For 3DS, I don't think it is even possible to store a curve in that format at all, I think it is only structured to hold triangle mesh data.

Do you have any example files that have curves in them that you can load into Bryce?

If so if you could post an example, that would let me see what it supports for transferring curves.

But most normally 3D curve data would be transferred with 3DM, IGES, STEP, or SAT formats to other programs.
