  1. This is the time to go ahead with suggestions that could make the EIModeler the best tool for our needs. I worked with FormZ and Silo and both had quirks in exporting to Fact. No tool is perfect but if we all pitch in, the Modeler could be the tool we need. Like the song said:

    ...You can't always get what you want
    You can't always get what you want
    But if you try sometimes (and pitch in) you might find
    You get what you need!

  3. As an update for the followers of this thread, I imported the model in EIAS 9.0 but the geometry wasn't pretty.

    I also imported it in Modo, ViaCad and FormZ with success and saved it as .fact

    All of them opened in EIAS 9.0 with FormZ as the clear winner for smooth and accurate geometry.

    Problem is NONE of them opened in EIAS 9.1 Anyone else with a similar problem?

  4. Sad joke it was…

    In the mean time I search the Forum and even went to the old CGTalk to no avail.

    I do remember there was discussions about it, that Fact export used to work but does not anymore.

    I also read about using Obj or FBX with better results but, for Pete's sake, I can't find any threads about it! (Who is Pete by the way?)

    I seem to recall Alonzo giving some interesting hints about UV mapping but cannot remember if it concerned Silo.

    Well, now you know how much I don't know. The depth of my ignorance is mind blowing… 

    Good day mate!
