Importing NURBS animation from Maya
I'm trying to create very simple tank tracks in unity. I don't need any physics, just a model and an animation. This is what I did so far: I made a circle shaped model in Maya (Image 1), applied a NURBS circle on it and deformed it so it looks like tank tracks (Image 2). Then I made an animation with twi keyframes where I animated the rotation of the base model on the Y axis. After that, in Maya the animation looks good, it moves like tracks, but I don't know how to export it to Unity so I can control the animation with an Animation Controller. I tried to export it as an FBX file, but when I rotate the base model in Unity, it doesn't follor the NORBS circle, it just simply rotates the whole model.

If anyone could help me figure this out, I would appreciate it.
Besides using Megafiers asset in the store I don't know another way to export mesh deformations following a path.
The simple method is to rig with bones, animate and export to Unity.
