How to export extruded curves from maya to unity

[Anonymous]

Hi. 

when I export a modell from maya to unity my pipes what I extruded from curves are not showing.

Is there any method to make them visible?

Hi @Anonymous and welcome to the community!

One fix that may help would be to combine the pipes and sphere as one mesh.

To do this, select everything like you did in the video then go under Mesh->Combine then export as fbx.

If this doesn't work, feel free to attach the scene file here or via google drive/dropbox and I can take a look at it 🙂

Hi!

Some additional options you may check:

A) Delete history.

B) Make sure to select only the correct objects from Outliner.

C) Create a group before export and select group for export.

D) Import the fbx-file into an empty Maya-Scene.

I suggest you convert your NURBS geometry to polygons before exporting. Modify, Convert, NURBS to polygons.

Alternatively, you can set the FBX export option Convert NURBS geometry to Interactive display mesh. This option gives you less control over the final mesh.
