    Uggg, I don't want to leave a bad review but I've tried reading all documentation and i think I've hit a wall. Okay so I'm a game developer working in unreal. The exporter is great in terms of bringing in the bones with X facing (whatever you need really) which is critical for control rig. Also does fix the whole armature scale set to 100 problem blender has. which unreal also really hates.. However, I cant seem to get the animation files to actually work anymore, it just spits out blank animation files that have my actions on them but no keyframes. whats even more frustrating is that it did work at the very beginning and now it has stopped working, if this issue is addressed ill be changing my review to 5 stars because it is handling the bones so well and that is no easy task. I currently cant figure out how to export the animations to the length of the action and not the timeline length, Something blender actually does really well. However, blank animations is pretty much useless for me. I hope we can resolve this! Cheers.

      This error means that you may using an earlier version for Blender 3.x, please download v5.4.18, remove the add-on and re-install the add-on again, don't forget to restart Blender after installation.

    Worked perfectly for me with an FBX file that was loading completely incorrectly using the default FBX loader on Blender 4.1.1 on mac. Textures, animations, everything loaded and ran correctly.

      I have confirmed that it is a false positive. I had erased my hard disk and recovered macOS to factory, then I compiled the source code in the completely clean machine, but a few anti-virus softwares still report virus, and the other anti-virus softwares simply copy the report, my Norton 360 and Avira Security reported the product as safe.

      Please test with the default scene when Blender started to see if the add-on works, and verify that you are not using the Microsoft Store version of Blender, details in the FAQ page.

    Generally really good. I just wanted to report that in the latest version (better_fbx-5.4.18) Windows Defender reported a trojan in the downloaded fbx. This isn't the case for the older version I'm currently using, so I thought I'd just alert you to that.

    I tried the addon and I was expecting all my model's textures to export perfectly but it didn't grab all the textures connected to the BSDF. This is what the addon is able to reimport: https://imgur.com/gallery/M40brMj

    For my needs I was trying to find a way to seamlessly import my blender models in Maya. I'm thinking this addon is more for importing and exporting rigs or animations. I'm considering requesting a refund, because I'm not sure if this addon is useful for me. I was using Blender 4.1.

      The material systems are not compatible with different 3d softwares, so the textures might have issues, please contact me to request a refund.

    Blender gave me rendering errors for two hours straight and I was going crazy. I tried this one, and it worked perfectly. Honestly, you're a lifesaver. $28 is truly a fair price for this addon. Thank you.

    Not sure if im doing something wrong, but this addon does not do what i was hoping. Importing rigged FBX to blender is always problematic for me, and this didnt seem to fix anything. Bones come in all out of whack, sometimes scaled way too large, sometimes in the wrong place.
