MED / Model Improvements (in development / in beta test)
Automatic LOD calculation for models. Atlas mapping. Texture generator for terrain. Multiple bones per vertex, with vertex weights. Model import from FBX files.

Is FBX just for importing or can models be exported too

This is GREAT news, Conitec ROCKS

Import only, although theoretically later exporting could be implemented also. The FBX format contains data fields that could be used for storing Gamestudio-specific features, like skin effects.

GREAT news, love to have export

Would you be able to store the models position, scale, and rotation as well with this format? Basically exporting an entire scene of FBX models directly to be used in WED, from any program that supports FBX(Max, Modo, Maya). That would be amazing, and definitly a great step forward.

The first step is MED FBX import. WED FBX import could later be implemented, and would then indeed be able to import a whole scene.

WOW

This would be great! I can only imagine how much this would improve the workflow of so many users. Thanks for considering.

Yes. That is really an amazing step to a better workflow. All users of Maya, XSI, Lightwave, 3ds max and even a few free packages can use this way to produce models and levels and transfer via FBX.

A scene import could even support lights and camera positions. Fantastic.

not to forget the users of Wings3d! *g*

Yes the workflow would speed up, great news.

And can't wait to export from MED and import from WEB.
