hmmm either should be fine, I think.

I'm looking at exporting as EPS for some print work though a little bit of shading would help... as it would be nice not to have to export and render via maya.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Ajit,

 

I've a couple of things that may work for you, neither on the web site right now because they need a bit of work to make them publishable. But I can forward either with some loose instructions if you like.

 

There's the old swuff tool, which works well enough for most purposes but requires a little scripting.

 

And I have an eps exporter which I think has a minor bug but may also work for you if you have something that will convert eps to flash. Also it only exports a single frame using the current selection so it'll need a touch of scripting before it'll export a sequence.

 

Swuff does rudimentary Gourad shading and uses a painter's algorithm for hidden surface. EPS does no shading and no hidden surface. Painter's is a workable algorithm but not foolproof.

 

Let me know which, if any, you'd prefer.

 

cheers
