Hi Mike!

Thanks for your quick reply! I found out the problem was the STEP file format. Instead I exported a SAT file from Solidworks, which gave me individually selectable objects.

Thanks for a great piece of software, I'm really surprised how well it translates the nurbs files into polys.

Hi Henrick, probably the difference was that in STEP format object names were coming through and it happened that all the objects had the same name. With SAT export probably no names came through.

You could have probably gotten the result you wanted with the STEP import if you cleared the names by the process I described above.

It would be nice if Cinema4D had an import option for whether to combine objects of the same name together into one single big object, it can sometimes be problematic that they just automatically combine separate objects with the same name into one chunk.


I'm glad that you're liking MoI, I hope it is useful for you!
