Hi guys, for the first time I tried to import a character with animations from 3d max without fbx2gg cause from unknown reason it crash this time

But I discovered I missed something, the key frames not react in gg, I tried to fit the key frames, like in the default combat soldier

But it just play all the animation in loop

what should I do?

Thanks

Did you use a copy of the default combat soldier's FPE file for your new animated character?
That should give you the same animation sequences and allow the script to work out of box.

Yes, I just changed the numbers of the key frames, maybe I should do something in the x exporting window of 3d max.

To see the weapons you have to have a bone for them to attach to, this bone should be a child of the right hand and called FIRESPOT all-in capitals. It will also need to be rotated correctly or the gun will be at the wrong angle. Hint: that also includes the bones roll

Yes, weapons attach to the FIRESPOT bone, that's why it's not visible, and probably fires from the chest.

@osiem80 what 3d software do you use , do you use the keyframes of the animation from the the timeline of the character in the fpe file right? , pay attention you exporting the x file with animations in the 3d software.

Looks like you might have vertices assigned to the wrong bone or not weighted right

Hi folks, does anyone can tell me if it's possible to import fbx assets in gameguru without using fbx2gg, simply using model importer? In GGX the model importer will be improved?
I mean, will be possible to import only from the "pipeline" fuse_mixamo_gg(x) or even directly import assets purchased from sketchfab?

Strange thing, it happen only when I export the character directly for 3ds max to x format maybe its something in the x exporting window, when I export it to fbx and using fbx2gg it looks normal.

@Petr Surtr, if its not a character with animations you can easily import fbx models to gg with gg importer I am using it many times.

I don't know about 3DSMax, but i've been playing with Blender and rigging today using the rigify add-on, and importing into gameguru in FBX format, and i was pleasantly surprised, my characters and their rigs were importing into GameGuru perfectly in FBX format, i had less issues than i ever had with .X format, i didn't even have an issue with the FIRESPOT, which i almost always do with .X

@Peri Turn off declData
Use Max matrix for Keys and Use Key frames for animation stuff.

If use Bond1's kW X-porter to export as X file, but is too hard to get Bond1's web site (if any)

No, when I say import I simply mean the process of getting it into gameguru, I don't use the built in importer for FBX in gameguru, it seems pointless to use because you have to edit the FPE anyway to add the anims so you might as well add the whole thing manually. To be honest the importer had never been quite right, it's always worked better adding a model manually whether in FBX or X.
