Helge, or Paul, two questions: 1 - is it possible with Splice to write to NURBS as well? Curves, foremost. Surfaces would be interesting for experiments, too. 2 - what about the writing to clusters? I assume Splice can only move inside the limits of the SDK. Basically, the classic SDK supports

Hey Eugen, anything you can write to within the SDK will eventually be supported at some point. The integration I am aiming at for the initial release will have the same feature set as the maya one. This includes: - boolean - scalar - int - string - vec3 - quaternion - matrices (kinematics)
