FBX ® is a platform independent content exchange format. It originally started as the native format of Autodesk MotionBuilder ®. Through plugins, other Autodesk ® products such as Autodesk Maya ®, Autodesk Softimage ® and Autodesk 3DS Max ® also support reading and writing FBX files.

Due to the wide support by Autodesk products, this format tends to be quite portable across different applications.

This add-on allows you to export FBX files from Animeeple software or this web site. The exported FBX files are also characterized so they are ready to animate.

Animeeple software can import FBX files without this add-on. Therefore if all you want to do is to import and publish your FBX files to the marketplace, you do not need this add-on.

Second Life™ users: Please note that Linden Labs asked us to prevent the export of Second Life geometry from Animeeple. You can use this plugin to export an avatar's animation data as an FBX file, but you cannot export meshes.
