Hi All,
Whilst awaiting the delivery of the new design suite I thought I would install a trial version of 3dsMax and start getting my head around:
a) The new software, &
b) The export / import tools of revit to Max
After a few hours of trying different options, I am at a stone wall where any imported fbx file has no materials what so ever!
I have updated the FBX converter to the latest version 2012.1, ensured that I had assigned materials in Revit and that sun / shadows were on.
Happy to acknowledge that I am a total noob with 3dsMax, but Gee, as far as interoperability goes, it is hardly intuitive.
Is there a particular process to get the materials across or a specific God to pray to?
Help :banghead:
further update:
I have found that if I link the fbx file rather than import it, SOME (80%) of the materials are now in the max file?!?
