...so even better if you use own code!

1. I would like to have one layer after exporting.
MoI produce like tens of them (its coming down from Rhino system probably)
Maybe at first you can create one Layer as option in MoI LWO exporter (I suggest make it fix, because these layers are useless)

2. Also another option:
Is annoying that MoI pass down smoothing surface threshold at 20% for all surfaces (this probably comes somehow as default surface option from Rhino...)
This is of course again next useless parameter and all surfaces should have no smooth threshold at all.

Attachment with both "issues"

Do you mean having just one surface in the LWO file so everything will be the same render color?

I can put in an option in moi.ini to not write the smoothing angle chunk.

HI

"Do you mean having just one surface in the LWO file so everything will be the same render color?"
- no, Just when export we get one layer instead many (attachment) Lightwave has nice layer organizing system which of course we use (like Walls, windows, ceiling, etc, these layers names no surface names) but after MoI we gat like hundreds of them (this comes from Rhino because Rhino/Autocad/other similar has different structure modeling similar to one layer one primitive object)


"I can put in an option in moi.ini to not write the smoothing angle chunk"
Yes!

Hi Yanus3D,

re:

Do you get what you want here if you set the same object name on all objects in MoI and set Options > Import/Export > "Combine same named objects" ?

To set the same object name on all objects do Ctrl+A to select all, then click on the object name here:
