Blender beginner here.

I'm playing with MasterXeon1001's amazing BoxCutter add-on in Blender2.8, and I'm getting undesired results when I try exporting my cut-up model into Octane (see image).

Is there a certain process that I need to do while exporting for the exported object to look the way it does in Blender? I've tried exporting as both an OBJ and an FBX, but have similar results.

Thanks in advance!

  • $\begingroup$ Updated the post to reflect this. I only tried exporting as an OBJ and an FBX. Neither have worked. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Box cutter and similar addons are boolean based. Boolean operations are (as you can see) very bad workflow in Blender. You problem lies not in export, it comes from unclean modelling techniques. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Givent that this is a paid addon, it seems to me that you should post this question to the developer. $\endgroup$

I have found a solution. Modus Destructive not Non destructive. Export as .stl file.
