Does anyone know if a Mac version is being produced? I see it's PC only. Would be a great way (and a cheaper way) to get poser figs into Maya.

Dumb question.... Why would you need .fbx for Maya? The .obj is native to Maya. At least as far as I understand it. In my 3DS Max export they have Maya .obj file......

"Why would you need .fbx for Maya?
For the rigging, morphs and materials.

I'm interested in this too, but there is no preview image (or better animations) to see how well the rigging is converted.

bjergtrold ( ) posted Fri, 30 September 2005 at 4:43 AM

I think it converts only the Daz3D base figures, but not other figures or clothing. This is a very limiting factor in my book.
I might still buy it, but there is no demo available or any other way to gauge the quality of the rigging.
Does anyone have first-hand experience with this program?

You know what is right for you. I know what is right for me.

bm I'm looking at the 3dsmax version...does anyone have experience with it? does it carry a non-supported rig over to max at all?(even if it does need tweaking) I know there's scripts to convert max bones to biped,has anyone tried this for it to work in CS? Staby..there is a video preview for the 3dsmax version that might give you an idea of what you get,however you'll need to go through a convoluted registration process to get to it. Cheers Stefan

"I know there's scripts to convert max bones to biped" Stefan, do you have any links to such a script? I'd love to have this, as I have not been able to find anything that does the bones to biped conversion, only the other way around.

I saw it mentioned at cgtalk when I was downloading the 'rigging army knife' script...that one can convert a biped to max bones ..(but we want it the other way around) I'll track down the link tomorrow Stefan

Maxx..no go I'm afraid, I must've been thinking of the army knife script(which looks very handy after viewing the demo video but which works the other way around :( autodesk now own CS so maybe they'll work on a solution

"Maxx..no go I'm afraid, I must've been thinking of the army knife script(which looks very handy after viewing the demo video but which works the other way around :( autodesk now own CS so maybe they'll work on a solution" Ah, well thanks for checking anyway. I hope we get a solution for that from Autodesk soon. Would be nice to have that ability, but only if the conversion is solid. I think the current version of CS has some problems with Physique; something that complicates a clean translation from bones to CS rig. Not sure what it is exactly, but that's what I heard somewhere... I'm sure it's fixable though.

Alias brought out this FBX converter about a year ago for Windoze, Linux and Mac. It is a standalone product that does not need anything else on your harddrive (like the presence of LW, Maya, XSI, etc.). You must register for a Bronze-level membership. Alias will not spam you with unwanted email. The FBX converter is free. There are also plugins available for LW, 3DS Max, Maya, XSI, and QuickTime. Go now. -scara
