Yes there is no MTL export (Nomad doesn’t have textures).  
The MTL is not mandatory, so it should work on other softwares.

Also exporting multiple file is a bit bothersome because of permission issue, etc, so it’s not planned for now.

Thats my error 🙂

I had exported them out to a folder that already had mtls in it, so made the assumption that was the glitch.

I will have to try this again. Trying to take a sculpt into maya, as a test

Thanks
