The majority of characters in iclone and CC4 require "smoothing" to turned on for purchased content to look acceptable (especially older store content such as the toon characters)

Currently iClone exports alembics as triangles (although the alembic SDK is able to support Quads and SDS). Applying SDS or other types of smoothing in other software with content that is triangles has undesired results.

It would be great to either
1) export alembic animations as quads and allow other packages (maya, cinema etc) to apply their own SDS or catmull smoothing.
2) or alternatively "freeze" / apply the smoothing featured in iClone, prior to export so that content is comparable between different software.
