Need help exporting FBX in Maya and not including audio (by MEL script)

martin3dar

Hi all, here my first post!

I have this script that outputs FBX files from Maya to Unity, now, I see that in the manual interface for FBX export there is an option for Audio including...

...and I have found all other needed commands in the Maya help, but I am still searching for this one with no luck..

some relative questions that may solve the issue:

- If I am using MEL for my export, does it even add audio (even if enabled in the manual interface) ?
(other values are taken from the last FBX export, unless specific commands override them)

- If it is enabled in the manual interface, will it export if I am doing an "export selected"?

much thanks to anyone that pops here trying to give a hand, no "2 cents" are unimportant!

You can access any FBX export setting using FBXproperty. For example ;

FBXProperty Import|IncludeGrp|LightGrp|Light -v true;
Use this command to set an import value to true.

you can list all the possible commands using FBXProperties

that was awesome! thanks!

for future searches, the specific answer to audio is:
Export|IncludeGrp|Audio    ( TYPE: Bool ) ( VALUE: "true" ) 

and applies like this (at least in MEL)
FBXProperty Export|IncludeGrp|Audio -v false
