Do you think a polygon optimizer AddOn would make them lighter?<BR /> <BR /> ArchiCAD exports 3ds files so well... But we also need to import and work with 3ds files as well! (not with those huge and obscene sizes).<BR /> <BR /> Hey Fabrizio!! What do you think an "ArchiPolyOptimizer"? <IMG src="https://community.graphisoft.com/legacyfs/online/emojis/icon_wink.gif" style="display : inline;" /> Fri, 21 Apr 2006 15:46:53 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Collaboration-with-other/Converting-Archicad-to-a-low-polyon-Maya-obj-file/m-p/63110#M5880 Electric Flute 2006-04-21T15:46:53Z
