# Forger Export

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Forger export** in **Cinema 4D**. It sends geometry with UVs and vertex colors to the Forger sculpting app — generators are transferred as baked polygon results.

When exporting, note that only geometry and a few other elements (e.g., UV, vertex colors) can be exported to Forger. More advanced functionality, such as most generators (exception: primitives and instances) will not survive the double exchange. Only the generator result is transferred polygonally,, i.e., when importing back to Cinema 4D, no Generator object as such is created.
