    XNA Tool To View 3D fbx files

    Reply Quote

    I would like to quickly check that my 3D fbx files display and work correctly within a XNA environment.

    Is there a XNA tool that allows me to do this?

    You will also find a C++ Viewer tool in the FBX SDK that can be used to check your animations and such. You will have to complie it up but it does work.

    Hi,

     The easiest way to view a FBX file, is using the FBX QuickTime Viewer.

     You only need the free version of QuickTime and download the FBX QuickTime Viewer from Autodesk (both files are free).

    You can download them here:
         FBX QuickTime Viewer, from Autodesk
         QuickTime, from Apple

     This viewer it's really good, you can even see the FBX animated models.

    I will take a look at that! 
     
    However a XNA tool that could show how the FBX is doing would be helpful for all of us, and also could animate the FBX by frame selection. 
     
    That would be nice ^^

    Don't have the link to hand, but in the samples section there is a winform application that allows you to load objects from the menu.
