Maya script - multi object export to separate FBX files

wr_uk · Oct 2013

Hi,

I wonder if any can point me in the right direction

I'm after a maya script that will enable me to export a number of selected objects to separate FBX files.

Ive had a look around but cant seem to find what I'm looking for.

Thanks

take this python file drop it in your maya scripts directory. than make a shelf button with this python code.

import fbxExporter
fbxExporter.UI()

if move to orgin is checked off, it will move meshes to 0,0,0 x,y,z in the fbx files.
The Script uses the object names for the fbx file names.

Thanks for the reply.

I created a .py shelf button from the script but nothing happens.

What do I need to do with the code:

import fbxExporter
fbxExporter.UI()

you run that code in the python script editor, or you make a python shelf button with that code, and use that to run it.

for it to work, the python file i have in the first post, must be in your maya scripts directory.

python is a case sensitive language, so that could be your problem.

if it works the UI looks like this
