Changelog (changes since 4.0.2):

  • Turned the patch into a separate add-on, so replacing the original add-on's files is no longer necessary! This also means that this patch gets its own Import/Export options, rather than replacing the original ones.
  • Replaced UE3 Batch Export NLA Strips with UE3 - Batch Export Anims. This uses a faster method, and also supports Actions - not just NLA. As a result, some settings have been moved to Export > Animation, since it makes more sense to have them there.
  • New setting: Export > Animation > UE3 NLA - Modular Anim Support - On export, merges any horizontally chained NLA strips, plus any additive strips stacked on top, into a single animation. This way, they don't have to be baked manually before exporting.
  • New setting: Export > Animation > UE3 - Remove prefix from anim names - This removes the object prefix from action names, which is normally added by the vanilla FBX add-on.
  • New setting: Import > Armature > UE3 - Import Scale Inheritance - Controls whether the Inherit Scale bone property is imported or not. (Previously, it would always be imported, which could be intrusive in some situations.)

Includes:

  • io_scene_fbx_patch_ahit-4.2.0.zip - Extension usable in Blender 4.2.0 - 4.2.3.
  • io_scene_fbx_patch_ahit-4.2.0-Backport_4.1.0.zip - Same additions, backported to a Blender 4.1.0 add-on.
  • io_scene_fbx_patch_ahit-4.2.0-Backport_4.0.2.zip - Same additions, backported to a Blender 4.0.2 add-on.
  • io_scene_fbx_patch_ahit-4.2.0-Backport_3.6.8.zip - Same additions, backported to a Blender 3.6.8 add-on.

Note

A version of the patch intended for a specific version of Blender may still work with earlier/later patches of it. So an add-on intended for 4.2.0 could still work in other 4.2.X versions.

Important

Since this patch was converted to a separate add-on, the install instructions have changed from the previous (legacy) versions. You can find the install instructions on the wiki.

These are versions of the patch made before the move to GitHub. The contents and naming conventions of these versions are all over the place, but are kept here for preservation reasons.

Install instructions

Unlike the newer versions of this patch, these legacy versions act as a replacement for FBX add-on that ships with Blender. As such, these have their own install instructions:

  1. Download and extract the .zip file of the patch (or a backport of it) that matches your Blender version.
  2. Locate your Blender installation, and find the FBX python scripts:
    ...\[Your Current Blender Version]\scripts\addons\io_scene_fbx\
  3. Back up those original files somewhere (preferably outside of the Blender installation).
  4. Copy the files from the extracted .zip file, and paste them into that folder, which will prompt you to replace the original files.
