Thanks.

With a slower computer, the Optimize modifier can take some time and I believe that is what is happening. If you are importing large assemblys, this will slow it down a lot. When I did it, I did it by individual part, and the ones that were still to high and I could model or simple enough that it wouldnt take too long to model, I would. As for exporting low poly objects, I do not know if that can be done as I do not know a lot about Inventor.
