[SOLVED] FBX import fails

[werner.poetzelberger]

We have converted a 2.6 Project to the latest version.

FBX import doesnt work any more. The files do not show up in the asset browser.

I see the exported FBX file in the Windows explorer, but it doesnt show up in the asset browser.

There is no .meta file being created.

Trying to import a box from 3dsmax throws: 

Import::createImporterByFileName : can't find importer by "FBX" extension.

"Can't create importer"

Solved.... Didnt Include, FbxImporter, in the startfile.

how to solve? @werner.poetzelberger

[werner.poetzelberger]

In your launch_editor.bat file you need to include -extern_plugin "FbxImporter"

 

e.g.

@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set APP="bin\Editor_x64.exe"
if exist %APP% (
    start "" %APP%  -video_app auto -video_vsync 0 -video_refresh 0 -video_mode 1 -video_resizable 1 -video_fullscreen 0 -video_debug 0 -sound_app auto -data_path "../data/" -extern_plugin "FbxImporter,CadImporter, -console_command "config_autosave 1 && world_load \"YOUR PROJECT\""
) else (
    set MESSAGE=%APP% not found"
    echo !MESSAGE!
)
