NAME ObjToIv [-a] [ -h ] [-q] [- | <infile> [outfile] ] Where <infile> Wavefront (.obj) file to convert. If <infile> is absent or '-' input is taken from stdin. <outfile> Inventor file. If <outfile> is absent output goes to stdout. -a Ignore separate the groups from the .OBJ file into separate objects in the Inventor (.iv) file. Elements that are in more than one group will be duplicated under the Inventor objects. -h Display the usage guide -v Verbose: output processing information -q Quiet mode - no errors reported This translator converts Wavefront OBJ files into Inventor 2.0 files. The translator will be bundled with SGI computers and available to SGI customers. It is a license from Acuris to SGI for use by SGI customers. Currently the following are handled. Polygonal Meshes Groups (it works best if the groups are unique, polygons belonging to more than one group will be duplicated in the Inventor file This will be improved for the release version. ) Materials - Colors do come through as defined in the .mtl library. Remember to set the WF_MTL_LIB environment variable to the location of the material library file used by the obj file. Textures - it is assumed the *.tex bitmap files have been converted to *.rgb files and the the WF_MTL_LIB environment variable has been set. Smoothing groups in Wavefront are not converted into smoothing groups in Inventor. Inventor's own smoothing algorithms are used. The translator has the following bugs: 1. Curves and Surfaces are not translated yet. Will be done by next release date (update). The following is the output of ObjToIv -h ___________________________________________________________________________ ObjToIv version 1.0 7/26/95 Copyright (c) 1995 Abaco Systems, Inc.
