Instances to Objects, Position only

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I'm not sure if this is possible, but is there a means of exporting nulls or such for Instances that just has the Pos, Rot, Scale info, in other words NO geometry? Seems like it should be doable.

    as for instances FBX shows them as nulls in some softwares

    The Alienator Pro idea is worth some tests.

    I've tools that I can manipulate, covert nulls or points to instances. Just a matter of getting DAZ to cough up the data.


    If I could get the vector info into nulls, that would be ideal. The info is already there I think, not being generated dynamically, so if I understood DS's instancing methodology better that might be what is needed.  Basically, if you took something like Instances to Objects and had it stop short; leave a null instead of an object.
