Changing Maya Import Axis Errors
Mon, 8 Oct 2007 17:52:58 +0000
We've converted to a Z up Maya to help with going between Max and Maya...

so I'm scripting up the command line commands for importing in to a Z up Maya
world... In the docs it says...

===
FBXImportAxisConversionEnable –v
[true|false]

FBXImportUpAxis [y|z]
===

I tried "FBXImportAxisConversionEnable –v 1" but all i get is syntax
errors so i tried "FBXImportAxisConversionEnable 1" and this seems to
work???

However in order to get the correct results each time my actual code has to
be...

FBXImportAxisConversionEnable 1;
FBXImportUpAxis Y;

It makes no sense that I have to specify "Y" as my up axis, it's
almost like it works totally opposite to the UI?

Can anyone explain this please?

thanks,
