Upgrading older versions of PolyTrans & NuGraf:
If you wish to upgrade a previous version of PolyTrans or NuGraf to the most recent release
then please send email to sales@okino.com with your
main serial number, add-on serial numbers and full registration information
(name, company, address, telephone/fax and email address). In return we will inform you
of the upgrade cost, which is based on when you purchased the product and with what
optional add-on modules. We will also take this opportunity to update our registration
database with your current contact information.
Basic Pricing Information:
To purchase a copy of Okino's PolyTrans or NuGraf you would:
Purchase a "base" package version
Purchase one or more optional add-on converter module packs.
NuGraf is the main package developed by Okino; PolyTrans is a simplified, derived version of NuGraf for those who just want a minimally user interface for performing data conversion.
PolyTrans & NuGraf (for Windows) will also run on a Apple Mac machine using a Windows emulator. It has been reported that they also run on Linux using WINE.
Additional add-on modules are available separately (see below). Discounts are available when multiple add-on modules
are purchased together.
Every copy of PolyTrans & NuGraf (for Windows) ships with the PolyTrans-for-MAX native plug-in module for 3ds max; these allow 3ds max to natively import/export all of the stand-alone PolyTrans supported file formats (and also forms one side of Okino's unique MAX/Maya conversion pipeline). Please note that PolyTrans cannot read/write the .max file format without a resident copy of 3ds max on your machine.
Every copy of PolyTrans & NuGraf (for Windows) ships with the PolyTrans-for-Director native plug-in importer module for Macromedia Director; this allows Macromedia Director to natively import all of the stand-alone PolyTrans supported file formats.
Resellers may sell for less (please contact one of our international resellers for exact pricing).
Add-On Converter Modules Pricing Synopsis (for Microsoft Windows):
Product Code
Add-On Module Description
Price (U.S$)
CAD/Pack
Autodesk Inventor importer, DWG importer, IGES 5.3 import and export (surface-based IGES - 144/142/128), Solid Edge import and SolidWorks import
PTC Granite importer licenses: ProE® native parts & assemblies, PTC .neutral files,
ACIS® SAT (up to v7), IGES (solids), Parasolid®, Pro/DESKTOP®, STEP & VDA-FS.
Provides import of crack-free, BREP solids CAD files.
The Granite/Pack is licensed directly from PTC on a monthly basis and updated versions are
available to our customers who upkeep the yearly PTC maintenance subscription.
The Granite/Pack license you purchase is
perpetual and will not expire, but you will need to renew the PTC maintenance subscription
on a yearly basis (or whenever you wish to upgrade again in the future) to obtain newer
versions released by PTC. You are not locked-in to buying this maintenance subscription every year.
The Granite/pack also includes the Okino 'surface-based' IGES importer as a complement to the 'solids-based' PTC IGES importer.
Note: this is the only software available on the market which imports native,
encrypted PTC ProE files using a real, licensed copy of ProE Granite from PTC.
It is common for about 1 in every 2 Okino customers to buy multiple add-on packs, either at the time of purchase or some time later.
The following discounts apply when 2 or more optional
add-on converter packs are purchased at the same time, or within 30 days of each other.
(*) Approximately every 1 in 2 customers will purchase the "CAD/Pack" and the "DCC/Pack" together in the US$395 dual "CAD-DCC-Pack" bundle. This was previously known as "Win-All-AddOns" in pre v4.
A resident copy of Maya is required to run the native PolyTrans-for-Maya plug-in system. A resident copy of Softimage is required to run the native PolyTrans-for-Softimage plug-in system; however, the dotXSI import and export converters can run in any Okino product without Softimage present.
The "Granite/Pack" converter suite will allow you to import from all major 3D CAD "solids" (BREP based) file formats,
view the models, optimize the models, and re-export to all Okino supported file formats. These converters can also be accessed directly inside 3ds
max (via PolyTrans-for-MAX), Maya (via PolyTrans-for-Maya), Softimage (using PolyTrans-for-Softimage) and Macromedia Director (using PolyTrans-for-Director). The Okino implementation of the Granite importers work just wonderfully and are completely robust.
A quick search of the Internet will show that each individual Granite converter is often sold for $500 or more, and all of them for upwards of $2500. Okino is
offering the entire suite of converters for US$395, or less if purchased with other optional add-on converter packs (see table above).
A resident copy of Autodesk Inventor, Solid Edge or SolidWorks is not necessary to read in these native files but in most cases it will provide for more flexibility and control.
"CAD/Pack" is the v4 successor to the "WIN/IGES" license. "DCC/Pack" is the v4 successor to the "Soft/WIN" license. The dual "CAD-DCC-Pack" is the v4 successor to the "Win-All-AddOns" license.
Resellers may sell for less (please contact one of our international resellers for exact pricing).
ACIS SAT, CATIA v4+v5 Add-On Modules Pricing (for Microsoft Windows):
The following CAD importer modules for Okino software are based on the defacto industry standard ACIS SAT and CATIA v4+v5 components from Spatial Corp and its parent company Dassault Systèmes (the makers of CATIA). For those people who have never purchased high-end CAD software before, you need to be made aware that such software is sold via an upfront license fee and a per-year reoccurring maintenance fee, as stipulated by Spatial Corp.
This is the defacto industry standard for importing ACIS SAT (text) or SAB (binary) BREP solids-based files, as it uses the licensed Spatial ACIS modeling engine. All versions of SAT/SAB files are supported up to the current ACIS modeling engine release. File extensions supported = .sat and .sab.
Imports and processes BREP solids-based geometry files stored in the CATIA v5 native parts and assembly file formats. File extensions supported = .CATPart and .CATProduct.
** IMPORTANT ** Spatial Corp. licenses its CATIA and ACIS SAT licenses on a per-year basis
(this is not an Okino policy). The licenses
are not perpetual, as are often the case with high-end CAD modelling software like CATIA.
Each year the license has to be renewed via the yearly 'maintenance fee' noted in the above table. Okino personally contacts its
users of the Spatial converters at month 11 and just before month 12 to remind them of the pending
maintenance renewals. If the maintenance is not renewed then the CATIA and/or ACIS licenses will expire.
Spatial Corp. requires that the maintenance fee be paid yearly, starting with the initial purchase.
If you let the maintenance payment lapse (and let the license expire as a result), then decide to
start paying them again at some undetermined time in the future to re-start the license,
a "re-instatement fee" will then be due to Spatial Corp.
Resellers may sell for less (please contact one of our international resellers for exact pricing).
'JT Open' Add-On Modules Pricing (for Microsoft Windows):
The following CAD import/export modules for Okino software are based on the defacto industry standard
JT Open toolkit components from UGS.
This is the defacto industry standard for importing JT geometry files. All versions of JT files are supported up to the current UGS JT Toolkit release.
This is the defacto industry standard for importing and exporting JT geometry files. All versions of JT files are supported up to the current UGS JT Toolkit release.

CAD/Pack Overview:
The Okino CAD/Pack has been a core, staple add-on module used to convey CAD data into Okino's stand-alone PolyTrans &
NuGraf packages, as well as PolyTrans-for-MAX, PolyTrans-for-Maya, PolyTrans-for-Softimage, PolyTrans-for-Director, and others. Converter
specific information can be found in these Okino WEB pages:
Autodesk Inventor,
Okino IGES,
DXF/DWG (with ACIS solids in DWG files),
Solid Edge and
Solid Works.
Okino has been actively involved with developing our own CAD converters starting in 1988, which equally applies
to our CAD/Pack module. We don't "write"
converters but rather "nurture" them over years and years to handle all varieties of data that our
customers often send our way.
We have also been proactive in developing the first set of useable and refined CAD data
to non-CAD-program conversion pipelines (such as CAD to 3ds Max, Maya, Softimage, Lightwave,
Cinema-4D and others) all based on real world customer conversion requirements.

Click on the "Imp" or "Exp" underlined links to review the online documentation for the respective converter modules.
¶ DWG 2008, with extraction of encrypted ACIS SAT solid data from .dwg files, should be available shortly, or by
the time you read this information.
DWG and IGES import from disk based files. Inventor, Solid Edge and SolidWorks either import from disk based files or can use "Automation" to query
highly accurate data from a running copy of Inventor, Solid Edge or SolidWorks.
Invariably the Inventor, Solid Edge and SolidWorks importers do not need to be modified when newer versions of their respective host programs are released,
and thus the version numbers listed should in no way hinder the execution of the importers.
‡ The "5.3" version for the IGES importer has little bearing on the import of IGES data. All you really need to do is export from your source CAD package
as "Surfaces" or "144/142/128 Trimmed NURBS surfaces with uv-space trim curves".
‡ Many potential Okino customers wish to convert polygon data back to trimmed NURBS, or polygons to solids, simply by exporting to the Okino IGES exporter.
This is not possible, even if you don't want to believe it! You will need to purchase a "surface reconstruction" program which allows you to interactively reconstruct a NURBS model out of a mesh
model, and only then be able to export a newly reconstructed NURBS surface to an IGES file. In the end these same people often just re-model the mesh mode
in their favorite 3D solids modeler. We can refer you to several companies which sell surface reconstruction software:
headus, CySlice v3,
inSpeck, Inc.,
Raindrop Geomagic,
ParaForm and
RapidForm.
DCC/Pack Overview:
The DCC/Pack contains our most developed and heavily used converters dealing with the common "Digital Content Creation"
animation and modeling programs, as well as VizSim (OpenFlight). To you these might seem to be just import and export converter modules, but "under the hood" these
modules are the life blood of many an Okino programmer. For example, converting between 3ds max and Maya (via the native PolyTrans-for-MAX and
PolyTrans-for-Maya plug-in systems) is an "occupation" in itself at Okino for which we continue to clone the common functionality of MAX and Maya into the core Okino
toolkit software (and related interfaces) so that raw, mostly unmodified data can flow between these two programs using PolyTrans as the common stepping stone.
FBX 'Samurai' model (courtesy of Kaydara/Alias/Autodesk) imported, animated & rendered in Okino's NuGraf. Click on any image to view a Windows Media 640x480 animation (2.3MB download).
These converters are grouped together in the DCC/Pack as they are developed in unison so that data can flow fairly evenly between any two DCC-based animation
or VizSim packages. Okino's known forte has been in providing hands-on, developer-based support to our customers to ensure that these converters work well in
production pipelines (and some customers use our converters in the most unique ways!). Note that the PolyTrans-for-MAX converters can be scripted using MaxScript,
the PolyTrans-for-Maya converters using MEL, and the other Okino converters using Okino's VBscript or JScript based scripting language.
Click on the "Imp" or "Exp" underlined links to review the online documentation for the respective converter modules.
PolyTrans-for-Maya runs inside Maya as a native plug-in system (and requires a resident copy of Maya). This allows a Maya user to easily access all of the stand-alone Okino converter modules. To convert
data to/from 3ds max use the Okino ".bdf" scene transfer file format and the native PolyTrans-for-MAX plug-in system on the 3ds max side. To convert data to/from
Softimage use the .dotXSI file format from the Maya side. To convert data to/from Lightwave use the Lightwave import/export converters from the Maya side.
PolyTrans-for-Softimage is a "proxy" plug-in system for Softimage which allows the Okino stand-alone import/export converters to be accessed directly inside Softimage,
by way of the dotXSI file format and the Okino PolyTrans|ProServer technology.
The Softimage|3D converters can read/write stand-alone .hrc files (which contain geometry, hierarchy, material and texture information). They can also read/write
from a full Softimage database if the converter can be pointed to the Softimage-3D "rsrc" directory.
Okino's OpenFlight exporter is unique in the fact that it can read from newer OpenFlight file formats and write to the much older 14.2 file format; the
14.2 file format is still quite common in the military VizSim markets. Okino writes its own FLT exporter module and has complete control over its development and
refinement. The FLT importer utilizes the MultiGen OpenFlight DLLs to do all the parsing while custom Okino code walks the database tree and converts the "node based"
VizSim information to scene graph data more acceptable to the common animation programs.
Okino has actively integrated the PTC Granite interoperability kernel directly
into its PolyTrans & NuGraf packages to provide extensive "3D solids" model import support
to its already extensive line up of 3D CAD and non-CAD file formats. This core
technology adds the strong native file import support for ACIS® SAT®, IGES (from solids),
PTC Pro/Desktop®, PTC Pro/ENGINEER®, Parasolid®, STEP and VDA-FS.
These formats play a pivotal role in bridging the CAD and industrial design markets with the non-CAD worlds of 3D multi-media animation packages, VisSim packages, WEB publishing and polygonal modelers via the tried-and-tested Okino data translation pipelines offered in the PolyTrans & NuGraf packages.
Most importantly, for Pro/Engineer data users, this module inserts a real, live running copy of core Pro/Engineer software
inside of Okino software, allowing for the perfect import and translation of encrypted Pro/Engineer files, up
to the most recent version. No intermediate or reverse engineered file formats are used to convert the
Pro/Engineer data, as is used in all other non-Granite related Pro/Engineer conversion pipelines.
Okino is by far one of the most active and ardent users of the PTC Granite interoperability kernel and
as such provides very strong CAD conversion through this pipeline. Okino has been the primary provider of
Pro/E conversions software since the mid 1990's, using the real ProE software from PTC - we do not use
reverse engineered toolkits, or secondary file formats, to import ProE data so the data conversion process is
always ensured to be error free.
