Ok ;)
Maybe have seen a bug. I send the path and filename to the Softimage buildin obj-exporter.
This things i send, have no "" at the begin and the end.
Maybe, when your project folder has spaces, the obj-exporter send the generated obj not in the project folder, but in the nirvana.
Will test it...

Edit:
No, thats not the error.
The build in obj-exporter use spaces in the filename.

I have seen a other issue with clusters.
You have a mesh, this mesh has a material. This material will export.
Have the mesh clusters for every polygon, the materials from the clusters will export too.
You have also a unused material in the obj-file.

eg.
Mesh = material 1 = used by 0 Polygons
Cluster 1 = material 2 = used by 10 Polygons
Cluster 2 = material 3 = used by 2 Polygons

Exported obj-file has:
material 1, material 2, material 3.

I have started to implement my own obj-exporter.
The geometry works yet, now the uv´s are in work...
Quads or Ngons are ever triangulated.
Also you must not manualy triangulate.

Cooooool :ugeek:

regarding the interactive Dof, it's very easy to setup via expressions too. (for people like me without ICE :D )
