What happened to ImportNCI?

[huskermcdoogle]

Guys,

 

This isn't a show stopper right now as I still have X6 installed but... I had to write a filter for this job I am working on to get rid of short sharp turns on an otherwise smooth path morph between two curves path.  Quick Excel VBA program,wham bam thank you mam, poof a filtered NCI.  Go to import back in with 2017 so I can visually verify my filter job and can't find the ImportNCI path .  WTF, ok, search, search, search some more, nothing.  So I open X6 do what I need to do and post.  Is this what we should feel like when we upgrade  .  So frustrating that we lose functionality.  I guess I am going to have to figure out how to write a nethook for filtering my paths in the future. Once I get time, and some guidance from you folks, I would gladly share with you folks whom actually take the time to manually "filter" your multi-ax paths.  I guess smooth motion comes at a price.

Out of curiosity

what do you get if you do a importNCI in X6, then open the X6 file in MC2017

Comes up to 2017 just fine as far as I can tell.
