Alembic does the same thing - all pivots at the parent pivot. MB Den 8. april 2015 kl. 17:20 skrev Mario Reitbauer : > Yea would say the same as Eric. Try using Alembic instead. > > 2015-04-08 17:17 GMT+02:00 Eric Thivierge < ethivie...@hybride.com > > : > > >

Re: Maya to Soft f*cks up pivot positions

Well the geometry is some 55 millions tris taking 1,3 GB so I am actually only trying to move the animated rig and reconstrain to a refmodel in Soft. The animated rig consists of locators and curves with shapes showing how they are supposed to move - translate and rotate. So I guess the first scena
