here it is just save goNvil.py to your maya scripts directory and make to python shelf buttons like these

send to nvil:
Code: [Select]
import goNvil
goNvil.exportObj()

get from nvil:
Code: [Select]
import goNvil
goNvil.importObj()

Will add some new features later, since i got a few workflow improvement ideas, but here is code i banged out in 2 minutes that works.

you can run the export like goNvil.exportObj(center=True) if you are exporting 1 object and would like it to be centered in your nvil scene when brought in.

Hey Passerby,  the link to your goNvil.py script is giving me a 404 not found.

Would love FBX support...because of the added features of this format.

Probably a matter of replacing a couple of lines in this Python script. I can't tell which ones though, because all links are 404.

Hi! I want to share my script, I wrote it a long long time ago and using it for years but it wasn't really polished and sophisticated, so I keep putting it off until recently I finally squeezed some time and make myself to rewrite it so it was more presentable and more useful for public. I also created a video showing how to setup the script and using it.

You can get the scripts at my github:
https://github.com/miica37/miica-scripts/tree/master/Nvil

and this is the link to the video:
https://youtu.be/Whj9iwwWno4



I hope you find it useful as much as I did. Please reply here if you found any bugs, problems or if you have any suggestion to improve the script, I will really appreciate it, Thanks!

I also have another script (with an UI) that are also for importing and exporting objs, not neccessarily for Nvil but more of a tool to manage your import export location, I haven't polish it yet but I really hope to share it soon and make another video.

FBX support would be cool, as it supports creases , whereas obj does not support creases.

Yes! I will look into fbx as soon as I find the time, I remember facing some problems last time using fbx to transfer object between maya and nvil and just go back to use obj because I couldn't solve the problem, but I will try again  8)
