Last I heard, FBX is a proprietary Autodesk format and problematic to use in Open Source projects. IIRC one guy reverse engineered some of it and implemented some level of support to a Blender script. So using open specified alternatives like Collada has seemed better. We haven't implemented Collada import yet, 'cause dotscene was simpler and serves ok, and there are converters from Collada to Ogre mesehs. But it has been now in the talks again -- reports and insights from you people who know about the state of Collada interoperability (do the scenes and materials etc. come correctly etc) would be welcome to assist in the planning. Of course realXtend is not limited to open source, but anyone who wants can write closed / proprietary plugins to it too .. dunno if that would be possible by someone licensing FBX stuff from Autodesk like Unity perphaps did? > Albert ~Toni > > 2010/9/4 Icreative <vanzeeland.geo...@gmail.com> > > > > The thing there is that you get to upload meshes, materials > and > textures > > in one go, and don't have to re-assign them manually > in-world.
