Perhaps I'm using some archaic conversion method, using Deep Explorer, but my OBJs always wind up as triangles whichever direction I'm going in. That script sounds like it could be tres handy. I also seem to get vertices randomly unwelding themselves, but thats generally not that big an issue. -
Re: maya to max, triangulation
Yeah, going through Deep Exploration is probably what's causing the triangulation. As for the verts unwelding, are you using .3ds format anywhere in the process? 3DS format unwelds verts on UV seams since it only allows 1 UV vertex for every 1 "physical" vertex.
