OBJ Export (enhanced) for AC3D

Released under the GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE.

This is an enhanced plugin for the Wavefront OBJ export in AC3D. This plugin differs from the standard AC3D OBJ exporter in the following ways:

Exports groups, either using AC3D groups or one-group-per-object
Exports textures
- Option to copy geometry texture files to the output OBJ directory
- Option to specify full pathnames or filenames only for textures
Only exports materials that are used by the exported geometry
Exports lines/polylines

This plugin and its source are freely distributable

AC3D versions prior to version 5 have not been tested with this plugin.

Description

Provides additional options and features for OBJ exports.

Installation

Copy the wf_obj_export.tcl and wf_obj_export.p files (included with this distribution) to your AC3D plugins folder (for example, if using Windows, C:\Program Files\AC3D5\plugins) and (re)start AC3D.

Help

Mouse-over each of the options in the interface in AC3D to get balloon help on each option (be sure to enable balloon help in your AC3D settings if it's not alreday set).

Problems

Post a message to the AC3D forums, attention to Dennis, if you have problems with this plugin.
