It becomes effortless.Ī Quick Note about Making and Finding Things: Super cool, eh?Īnd if you're like "look, Gerald, I don't have time to learn this stuff.", I made a video that proves that this whole process, once you’ve learned it, ends up taking like, a minute. Oh, and since it requires no installation permissions, is available as a zip, and has windows/mac versions, you can drop it on your machine/usb to use when you need it. Since it's not just a viewer, it allows all sorts of control that we otherwise wouldn't have. Blender is an open-source, fully-featured, fully free, actual 3D creation package that has the handy ability to import FBX files. That's why I wanna show you all Blender, and how you can use it to view and get more control of your FBX files. Wouldn't it be great if there was a program that could actually open FBX files? Or let you put the camera where you wanted? Or let you hide a table/chair/door that was in the way? Or even mess with focal lengths to get the shot you had in mind? FBX-Viewer can be quite the heart-breaker. From refusing to open files, to limits on where you can put the camera, to crashing on the reg. If you're boarding at a studio that provides CG background assets for boarding/revisions, then you already know how useful and time-saving it can be to have access to an FBX.īut Autodesk's FBX-Viewer can suck at times. Enjoy :) Jump Straight to the Tutorial Introduction:įBX files are super helpful. However, so much has changed going into blender 2.8 that I had to massively update the guide. A few years ago, I made a quick-start guide to help board artists get up to speed in Blender 2.7x.
