New Member andromali Posted December 7, 2016 New Member Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Hi, When I import .fbx files from Maya nothing shows in 3D Coat, almost like the mesh is invisible. I've tried "Import Object", Import, creating new instance and opening the file that way, nothing seems to be working. I would use .obj, but we're using .fbx for the project I'm part of. Are you aware of this issue and if so, do you have any fixes for it? Software used Maya 2017 3D Coat 4.7.06 (DX6x)(Educational) 3D Coat 4.7.06 (GL6x)(Educational) Hardware used GeForce 980ti (driver 376.19) i7 - 5820k @3.30 GHz 32GB Ram Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Are you importing to paint, sculpt, etc.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member andromali Posted December 7, 2016 Author New Member Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Just to UV map, but I've tried importing via per pixel paint, autopo etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Which version of FBX are you exporting? It might be worth trying the latest version (4.7.17X). Link is here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByesnXO2ExYDRGRxMUljSHk2dWs/view?usp=sharing If you're pressed for time, using an OBJ file should work.

New Member andromali Posted December 7, 2016 Author New Member Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Tried the newest version from the link, but .fbx's are still not working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javis Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I would email support directly ( support AT 3d-coat DOT com ). Andrew may be able to help you. In the mean time, I would definitely use OBJ. Sorry for the inconvenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New Member huggmachine Posted December 11, 2016 New Member Report Share Posted December 11, 2016 FBX's are also not opening for me. I'm also attempting to uv them and haven't had this problem until build 4.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
