Re: FBX Import

["Graham D Clark" <mailgrahamdclark(at)gmail.com>]

While we are on this, as the FBX IO is so important to us and others,
anyone else have these issues:
-enveloped objects not in a rig hierarchy will often freeze on export so have to write scripts to strip them out prior
-issues with psds not exporting 
-frozen texture projections dont export, get errors on export (sorry I dont have the scns here this week to upload)

Hello Brad, John, Juan,

We never experienced this issue internally. I would really appreciate if
you could send me the file so that we can repro and have a look.

If it's small you can send it directly to me. If not, put it on
ftp://ftp.softimage.com/incoming and let me know the file name.

Thanks!
LB
