Just like to put my penny worth in :-)
I use moi a lot in conjunction with Modo. I create both photo realistic renderings and 2D technical illustrations. Although we talk of mega data sets, it seems to me that large files i.e. > 250mb are becoming more commonplace in my workplace. I usually find my jobs are working with complex models, no one ever came to me wanting an exploded illustration of something simple, that usually gets done by the screenshot hackers in tech docs:-).
I use the export to Ai format where possible but it struggles on even quite simple models, the competitor is Pro E Ardor text CADprocess, this is a more mature software but even this is 32bit and is showing its age, I have to split some of my models (using MOI) before exporting. Caprices costs approx 10K!
My point is that I think Micheal underestimates some of MOIs non core features, Polygon export and ai export to name a couple. These are huge Plus points for MOI which just make this program so much more amazing.
Still keeping fingers crossed for 64bit - Im happy in the knowledge that we have the best man on the job:-)
