HAH! Who should have known! It's already there! :D

Seams like max's ever so shitty NURBS already has the convertion methods (b-spline > swept NURBS > Poly surface) all I have to do is script it all for automation :P The results are perfect, and it can do different kinds of optimizations too (not really a good choice I'd say, since it would ruin the edgeflows)...

So I guess I just saved myself alot of work :)

If there's one thing I'd like to see in MOI in the future is T-Splines if possible...

Michael, are T-Splines something that can be wired into MOI in a future upgrade? Or are the methods incompatible with your libraries, etc?

Hi Will, I haven't talked to the T-Splines guys about anything like this.

It would be a while before this would be possible - the T-Splines guys need a pretty comprehensive plug-in mechanism to make their stuff work. I don't expect to have proper documented support for doing plug-ins into MoI for a while yet.

The methods they use are compatible with MoI's NURBS surfaces, as far as translation between a t-spline object and a NURBS object goes. But there is a lot more involved than just translation - they essentially would need to add a new type of object to MoI to handle the editing of ther T-splines surfaces.

Thanks Michael, I wasn't expecting anything immediate, just hoping perhaps that one day in the future, T-Splines might make it in as a nice feature addition to MOI.
