Export 2 *.obj?
 

A stupid question i know, and i've done it before

How do i Export an object i've made in Maya, to a '*.obj' file?? for use in poser4 for instance

:banghead:

Choose your object, go to File/Export Selection, then choose the .obj format :)

Thats what i thought, but it won't work, it just gives me the option of- *.ma/*.mb/*.mov :confused: but i've done it before, i've got the *.obj files to prove it, and it's Maya unlimited

Go to Window > Settings and Preferences > Plugin Manager and make sure you have the .obj exporter loaded.

thanku thanku thanku :D

The export OBJ works great, except when i import it into say...Poser, it doesnt have any of the shading or textures...does maya not export these?

maya does not export textures, but does export uvs :(

which is quite mad considering maya is made by alias who created the obj file format..

if you have polytrans for maya though you can export texture information ( .mtl file).
