Subject: RE: Something to try if FBX files are crashing XSI

 

With a little help of the developer, I was able to script it in MOI directly
(what I use for conversion). And because I didn't need to retain the object
names, I could have just renamed it in max to something else. 3dsmax has
auto numbering for multi selections as well. Stupid me.

Odd, I was under the impression unsupported characters would be converted to
underscores. Do you have access to Maya and scripting knowledge there?

May I ask how do you managed to get rid of the special characters?

Subject: Something to try if FBX files are crashing XSI

 

Hi,

not sure if this is general knowledge. I just had some fbx files that were 
tripping up xsi for no reason like so many times before. The issue seems to be 
certain characters in object names (they had : everywhere) or materials(had # 
in them). After making sure it was all kosher with only AaZz09_ everywhere it 
imported just fine. Just in case someone else get tripped up by this.

 

Best regards,

Fabian
