Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What about a Mac or Linux version?

Stuff about why there is no mac version.


Q: Why can I export to .obj format, but cannot read .obj format into MoI?

MoI is focused on modeling using NURBS objects, there is not any way to open polygon mesh files (for example, .obj, .lwo, .3ds, or .stl files) into MoI directly, since those formats contain a different type of data than the smooth curves and surfaces that MoI operates on.


Q: Why does show points work for some objects but not others?

Trimmed surfaces, etc...


Q: Why do I get shading errors when exporting to some programs?

Try unwelding, some programs cannot deal with the full OBJ per-face data.
