3ds max- how to export a FBX file without pop up windows?

kurt_hectic

Hey,

Here's script I cut from some other one. It's a single button which do an "export selected mesh".

Are you able to add to this some code, please ?
-export as fbx (has to be changeable in the code)
-export without pop up windows! (use the last settings; settings could be changed in the file>export>export as pop up window)
-use name of the mesh as the file name
-save it in the provided path (has to be changeable in the code)

At the end of the day we will get an "one click" export button.

    resetxform obj -- This line will cause the max 5 to error, either delete it or add two - to the begining of the line.  By Doing so your Xform will no longer reset.

    )

      2: mySpot.z = obj.center.z
      3: mySpot.z = obj.max.z
    )
    obj.pivot = mySpot + [spnXOs.value, spnYOs.value, spnZOs.value]
    obj.pos = [0+spnXPos.value, 0+spnYPos.value, 0+spnZPos.value]
    )
    )

You're using those horrible 'actionMan' snippets of code. Never use those! They're like shortcuts/wrappers for the actual code that are completely useless.

Use this:

fn ExportStatic nodes exportpath=
(


pluginManager.loadClass FBXEXPORTER

FBXExporterSetParam "SmoothingGroups"  true
FBXExporterSetParam "SmoothMeshExport" false
FBXExporterSetParam "Triangulate"  false
FBXExporterSetParam "Animation" false
FBXExporterSetParam "Lights"  false
FBXExporterSetParam "ASCII"  true

select nodes

exportFile exportpath #noPrompt selectedonly:true

)

Rollout ExportPrep "Export Prep" width:80 height:30
(
    button btnExpSel "Export Sel" toolTip:"Export Selected"
    
    on btnExpSel pressed do
    (
        sel = selection as array
        fileName = sel[1].name
        folder = @"D:\Data\MyFiles\" --your path
        ext=".fbx" --your extension
        exportFile (folder+fileName+ext) #noPrompt selectedonly: true
    )
)
CreateDialog ExportPrep

Since you want to be able to change the extension...
Assuming you select a valid object and that the folder already exists.
