I've been researching FBX export from Sketchup for some time now and haven't found a good FBX export option. I need to export the model's textures embedded IN the FBX file which means it has to be the binary format. The options seem pretty slim. I found one plugin from SimLabs and it actually has fewer options than what's built into Sketchup (and it breaks some of the models components).
I also found the Autodesk FBX conversion tool. IT does create a binary file but unfortunately it combines multiple parts of the material in a single mesh of the output. This breaks the texture rendering in my viewer.
Perhaps there's some Ruby code out there for doing a binary FBX export direct from the console. That would be ideal. Are there any experts here who have experience with this?
Thanks
