It looks like a cool improvement to me, a good advance till the day we can import fbx char with our own anims.
In any case, it is a symptom that things are moving, development takes its course.
There are many opportunities that a robust and reliable importer opens up, especially to artists, since they can overcome many of the limitations that the X file has.
Please, Mr. Lee, remember that we don't all want to play soldiers, and the truth is that a fireman is very rare in a gun pose.

This is all great but red flags for me are Lee spending all the time getting fuse character import working but only the beta is free at the moment … what happens when its not and has a crazy adobe price tag ?

it's still a good step, (most of) the unity store models support .fbx so that's quite a big market to open

I do not think Importing is going as good as we all hoped judging by this git update (see last Line)

* Lightmapper now handles index buffers larger than 16bit (though not perfect)
* Multiplayer now reports server error when uploading FPM
* Ensures characters coming back into non-freeze range restore their animations in limbo mode
* Restored OFFSETX and OFFSETZ for static immobile entities to correct when geometry is offset
* Ensured text zone rendering works for VR and non-VR camera rotations
* Added progress to hosts sending prompt and ensured host does not repeat send FPM files to joiners
* Prevented FPM files from being hosted that are over 99MB (breaks current server limit)
* Removed IMPORT MODEL option from FILE menu as not 100% reliable for V1

Hi everyone,

First of all I want to congratulate the Game Guru's developers for their amazing work. GG is a superb game engine with good performances (as demonstrated with some of the demos provided with the application).

I am using GG's version issued on July 2019 and I noticed that the FBX importer is working quite well with FBX file created by Daz Studio FBX 2012 Binary exporter. FBX Animations of rigged meshes are also working -> It would be nice if the vertex animations (or morphs of rigged figures) could be imported.
Attachments : snapshots/animated GIF of some of my GG experiments with my creations (My tools : Marvelous Designer, Daz Studio 4.11, etc) .

By the way : I noticed in another thread of this forum that someone was able to import FBX files in Fragmotion 1.3.5. I am surprised by that because it doesn't work in my licensed version of that animation tool.

Thanks for watching.

It's the mixamo rigger that is cool and looks like this is still supported.

Cheers.

Yep but I fear that will just be removed .. Why would they keep it there once fuse has gone

yes, the Mixamo rigger is a great tool and works very well with all my conversion tools/projects. I convert a DBO to OBJ , upload to Mixamo and rig it, add anims, job done. simple.

I'll take a look tonight when i get home in my backups, i think i have them somewhere. If not it is super easy to get them into blender, all you have to do is import the uber soldier model into fragmotion, then select everything and expport it as .BVH, then import it as .BVH into Blender, and you now have the complete bones structure and anims in Blender.

It sounds to me like Adobe wants to make Photoshop the replacement of Fuse.
Now you can edit the model, texture it and animate it in ps.

A better GG character creator might be a good alternative to importing characters.

I imported a character from Mixamo and it animated while I'm building the game. When I test the level the character is stuck in 1 pose.

Help would be great!

Thanks
