Molecular Maya’s dsDNA kit facilitates the modeling and simulation of double-stranded DNA. However it is sometimes useful to export these dsDNA models as mesh geometry for use in other 3D programs and game engines. This tutorial explains how to use Maya’s MASH instancing system and Python to export geometry from mMaya’s dsDNA kit.
Using MASH & Python to export atomic geometry from mMaya
Although Molecular Maya (mMaya) facilitates the import and modeling of molecular models, it is sometimes useful to export these models as geometry for use in other 3D programs and game engines. This tutorial explains how to use Maya’s MASH instancing system and Python to export mMaya ball-and-stick atomic geometry.
