Hi everyone!



I have this 3d mesh, and I need to export it as .obj but there's no option to do it.



I also have some problems:

-I can't install any other big software, like 3ds or Rhino to import/export as a chain. That's because my HDD is pretty much full.

-I was able to use Automesh by Automapki to export some, but the trial expired.


That's about it.

Thanks a lot

Sounds like you need to do some clearing out of files to free up room on your hard drive or buy and install one with a greater capacity.

So I will need another program to do that? 

That's kinda sad... I've read that AutoCAD used to have that function.



I guess I'll have to try another software... after some clearing. My HDD is ancient: 150gb.


Thanks anyway

You can use the built in disk cleaner in Windows to rid your computer of some of the files.  As far as AutoCAD goes you would have to get rid of any BAK files which can be done easily via Windows Explorer and the Search feature.  Once you have found all the BAK files you can send them to the Recycle Bin then empty it.

You can also clean out temporary Internet files through your browser.

Do you have any programs you no longer use?  Clean those out via the Add/Remove option in the Control Panel.

When you've done all that defrag your hard drive, go out and buy a new one (larger capacity) and a good cloning program like Acronis and clone your original drive.  Then swap the two drives.  Use your old drive as a backup.
