Hello braj !

Well done ! The result is fantastic :-)

It's difficult for me to understand and explain all because my English is not good enough but let me told you one thing : when you succeed to mastering Blender (it took me several years, and I'm still learning), you will not need the autodesk fbx converter for Muvizu. Blender is so powerful but so hard to understand... :-)

Anyway... having fun is the most important thing :-)


Yep, and Muvizu+Blender=fun It is great to be able to make your own custom hairdoos and whatnot.

Edit: I did find a workaround for now: as soon as importing, with the object still unmoved and upright, double-click and uncheck 'keep upright' (which is what is causing it to tip apparently) and then 'floats in the air' in that order. Then the object will drop and oriented in the correct direction. I can't touch those settings again or it will tip again. Anyhow, I want this for the occasional transparent touches, so until I figure this out at least I can move on. Muvizu would be much improved if object orientation sliders were added to imported objects, that would be helpful even when things aren't going wrong.

Here's the culmination of my efforts, I was going for the effect those heads in jars have, just testing how textures look, what kinds of textures to use for glass, etc.

This is the FXB, if anyone can tell me how to edit it to fix that orientation issue, I'd be grateful: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9300947/VaseTest.rar

My english is not very good but if I understand well your trouble :

With the last Blender 2.76 and FBX 7.4 binary, everything works fine in Muvizu.

Before exporting, you have to "Apply" scale, rotation and location too (Ctrl+A in Blender). Visit the Muvizu Wiki for more details with Blender and Muvizu.]]> Fri, 29 Jan 2016 11:30:58 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5466-fbx-objects-fall-over-when-exported-from-blender.aspx Message from braj Fri, 29 Jan 2016 08:02:47 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic5466-fbx-objects-fall-over-when-exported-from-blender.aspx Message from braj Fri, 29 Jan 2016 07:45:38 GMT
