FBX Converter for Autodesk® Revit®

Introduction

FBX Converter for Autodesk® Revit®, a plugin developed by Kaydara and owned by Autodesk, is a powerful tool that allows users to easily translate their Revit designs into FBX files. This plugin provides a quick and efficient way to share 3D models with others, even if they do not have Revit installed on their system. With its user-friendly interface and a range of features, FBX Converter is a must-have for any Revit user looking to enhance their workflow and collaborate seamlessly with others

Features

FBX Converter offers a wide range of features that make it a valuable asset for Revit users. One of its main advantages is its ability to generate FBX files with just a few clicks. This means that users can easily convert their Revit 3D models into a format that can be viewed using various applications, such as Autodesk® FBX® Review, Unity, Autodesk® Maya®, and Autodesk® 3ds Max®. This opens up a world of possibilities for collaboration and sharing designs across different platforms.

Additionally, FBX Converter ensures that the conversion process is fast and efficient, allowing users to save time and focus on their design work. The generated FBX files have a small file size, making it easier to share them via email or other file-sharing platforms. While textures are not supported in the current version, colors and materials are fully preserved during the conversion process, ensuring that the visual integrity of the design is maintained.

Another notable feature of FBX Converter is the ability to select specific parts of a design for conversion. This allows users to export only the necessary elements, reducing file size and optimizing the workflow. Additionally, hidden parts can be skipped during the conversion process, further streamlining the export process.

The plugin also offers advanced features such as section box export, which enables users to export specific sections of their design. This can be particularly useful when collaborating with others or when specific parts of the design need to be shared or reviewed. Furthermore, FBX Converter provides Unity 3D compatibility, ensuring that the exported FBX files can be seamlessly integrated into Unity projects.

To optimize performance, FBX Converter includes features such as pixel culling and the option to skip small-sized entities. These features help to improve the efficiency of the exported FBX files, making them more suitable for real-time applications.

For users who require more control over the exported FBX files, the plugin also allows the choice of writing normals in FBX. This provides flexibility and customization options for more advanced users.
