maya to max fbx problems

Ruz

Has anyone had huge problems converting maya to max using fbx.

I have dloaded all the latest plugins and that just makes matters worse.

Exporting to 3dsmax 8 sp3 from maya 7.0 uisng the old plugins kind of works apart form it breaks the envelope size when skinning and adds weird legacy bone stuff.

with the latest fbx plugins its just screws up totally, warning about unsupported bone scaling -
all the bones are in the same point in space with the mesh totally borked

driving me mad

I actually think they've really improved it a lot and lately its been working for me a treat. What excatly are you trying to do? Anything like this?

yesh , but I was get weird bones errors when I was doing it and therefore the mirror skin won't work properly in max.
The latest pugins are actually worse than the default ones:)

I don't know. I synced it with a max user a few days ago and I just had him update his fbx plugin basically.

Did you delete all history on your objects?
