Riptide
Riptide is a plugin for Maxon's Cinema 4D to extend it's .obj file import/export capabilities. It is available Free of charge! from the downloads section.
The following is an overview/quickstart guide - an online version of the documentation can be found here but please see the included Readme file for the latest information.
Background:
While I love the workflow, interface, rendering and modeling tools C4D provides, I've always been frustrated by it's handling of .obj files, a short summary of issues are...
> On exporting, all materials are condensed and combined into the first material listed on the mesh.
> No real group support and/or inflexible group support where it exists.
> On exporting, Normals are reversed.
> No support for UVMapper regions.
> On importing, most material information is lost (C4D doesn't read .mtl files).
> Lack of additional export options.
> Lack of additional import options.
...Riptide was written to address these issues (and more).
