Is there a converter to transmorgify an .MPC file to .DFX, or even better .3DS,,, Or best of all .MAX?

Thanks for your time.

Z,

The .MPC file extension is a proprietary file extension. As far as I know, there is not any software capable of converting to a different file extension.

With the stl importer & pattern editor upgrades, you can export patterns to STL files.

Designer does a really good job of converting the files to STL.. one thing i love to see is a compiled version of the MPC file that would be the combination of Designers vectors and raster influence into one file tht could be exported to STL.

Alex, now i know why the bug reports seem thin you need to push the software a little more. <smile>

Don't you have to be the "owner" of the pattern? If the .mpc uses a licensed pattern, then it cannot be exported...correct?

Yes naturally. Basically just click on your raster and the PE will come up, then save out as STL.

Right C, it has to be exported from the pattern designer. You can't get it into pattern designer unless it is your pattern. That is, unless I missed a trick somewhere.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Fingers had their own ideas.
