[MINC-users] iv2bicobj

[Jason Lerch]

Greetings all,

for the morbidly curious: I've added a somewhat misnamed iv2bicobj 
utility to the bicInventor library. It lets you go from inventor meshes 
back to David's obj file format. Only works for polygons/indexed face 
sets for the moment. And unless I hear people clamoring for other data 
types that's probably all that it'll work for. Has very little error 
checking at this point, so will probably give horrible segfaults if 
tried with other data types (or with some version of inventor meshes 
which violate the simplistic assumptions I've made).

Why? There are a number of programs out there - such as amira - which 
can do neat things to meshes and save in the inventor format.

Cheers,

Jason
