Title: Extract model from KeyShot
Post by: Rikki on March 02, 2015, 07:40:10 AM
How I can extract model from KeyShot?
I lost my model, but I have to save the KeyShot project with my model.

Thanks for responding!

Another question, which made me very worried.
My old friend wants to get him a project in the КeyShot with 3d model.
But I would not want him to use my model for other purposes than to render.


Is it possible that the model from the KS can not be saved?
For example to create a password to save in obj or oter format?

As it turns out this is NOT possible for people who have the ZBrush version, which is sort of crippleware in the sense that a lot of  features are disabled.

You are also paying a fraction of the price. :-)

I realize that, and that is the definition of crippleware:
crippleware means that "vital features of the program such as printing or the ability to save files are disabled until the user purchases a registration key.
- Absconded off Wikipedia
.
I know that term sounds rather negative, and I suppose rightly so, but the fact remains that it IS crippleware.
Im not complaining here, its just that there isn't another way of putting it that I know of.
