Indigo and particles

Hi i am a new indigo user too.
I just wanted to ask if blendigo supports blender particles...
If yes what i need to do in order to make them work in indigo?

I know it's a bummer, but particles will be not supported by indigo. Also blender particles can not be exported. Btu you can use particle system for dupliverts.

BTW Welcome aboard!

there is a python script around somewhere apparently to make meshes in place of particles... if you find it please post it here

the problem with that script is, it only creates single vertices from dot-particles and edges from strand-particles, so, as long as you don't want to extrude millions of particles, it might be better to use dupliverts (that at least'd work for dot-parts... strands will need to get extruded to solids, anyway)
