\section1 Exporting OpenCOLLADA from Maya
 
In order for the OpenCOLLADA exporter to be active, some options must be enabled or disabled in the
\c {Plug-in Manager}. To find it, go to \uicontrol{Window > Settings/Preferences > Plug-in Manager}.
 
The \e fbxmaya.mll plug-in must be unchecked. The \e COLLADAMaya.mll must be checked as
both \c Loaded and \c {Auto Load}.

The \b triangulate option must be checked before exporting.
 
Finally, choose the location for the COLLADA file to be saved. It is a good practice to keep all
source art, including COLLADA files, in a folder outside of your project folder.
