Hey Peeps,
I tried to make it clear to people 3-4 months back that even though Blender couldn’t import .FBX rigged assets you could always run it through the Autodesk FBX conversion tool that’s free and convert to DAE. Been importing rigged characters from all different fbx formats since started using UE4.
So keep in mind yes it’s awesome Blender .fbx rigged import is now getting there, If it ever breaks on you just run it through the converter and turn into DAE format. Worse case your lose the animation on the file but the object and rig will be fine. Actually thinking of it, ive not used the 2.72 builds yet. Does the animated fbx come into blender with the animations attached, or is it just the object and rig? Need to find the time to test the new builds.
Cheers J
