HRC Models

Save your model using Save->Model in Softimage.

Go to your Softimage model database (e.g. ~blin/bor_si_base/MODELS) and find your model (scene-object.1-0.hrc).

Convert your model to an ascii format using "hrcConvert <infile> <outfile> -a"

Use the resulting <outfile>.hrc in your own CAVE code.
