| What export type to use in Maya 2013? [message #54409] Sun, 23 September 2012 02:49 UTC |

So I have my model in Maya 2013 which has an export file type option called STL_DCE which says it's a STL exporter. Is this the right thing to use from Maya 2013?
Another possibility seems to be .obj which has the following export check boxes;
Groups
Point Groups
Materials
Smoothing
Normals
If .obj is the way to go should those be checked/unchecked?
Cheers,
- James

I had the same question and found this link for how to export .obj files (which are more universally recognized by the various programs) from Maya 2013:
http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-maya/plugins---exten sions/obj-export/
(1) Window > Settings/Preferences > Plug-In Manager > check the objExport.bundle checkboxes
(2) select object you want to export > File > Export Selection |_| (options box) > File Type (dropdown menu) > scroll down to OBJexport > Export Selection
Hope this is useful.
