Niche af question but I'll try asking here. I'm trying to make a civ 5 mod and I can't for the life of me export an .fbx file that nexus will understand. I've tried making the mesh super small. I've made many different kinds of materials. I've used an FBX converter to convert the file to 2010 format. But nothing works. The mesh doesn't show up in 3d preview, the material doesn't show up either and neither does the animation (it's not an animation with bones, it's a ufo asset and just has a simple rotation).All the resources I've found are from like 2010. Most bug-fixes and files I find on forums 404 when I click on them. I've mainly been following this: https://forums.civfanatics.com/threads/howto-new-unit-creation.392985(The Nexus Buddy link 404s. I was able to find an exe elsewhere but it crashes on launch. So I have to do it the hard way.)
>>1019174Blender’s version of FBX is fake, this is why is never recommended. You can just use an actual software application that has a legitimate FBX export or you can do it the hard way by downloading modded special 3D software and hope it supports .blend and get it export in their illegal version.
>>1019174Sorry op i dont know the answer but i do know this guy>>1019176 does this in every blender thread whatever the topic. Dont believe its impossible just because of him, he lies
>>1019186It’s not a lie, Blender’s FBX is fake and not licensed by Autodesk. There are software that offer illegal Autodesk FBX export licenses, just like any other pirated software. There only person who lied is you and how you don’t help OP. He has clearly stated he tried everything in Blender and you claim nonsense.
Oy mate you got a license for that FBX?!
>>1019176>>1019192I've been on this board for all of 10 minutes and I can already tell that you are a worthless faggot nigger who's greatest contribution to society will be an eventual death to suicide. whether or not you're correct in your assertion that blender doesn't have the licence to .fbx is irrelevant. you are such a nigger and a faggot that every opinion you have ever held is a worthless waste of calories, even if it was correct. fucking kill yourself niggerfaggot.
>>1019468based>>1019174okay I'll give you a serious response OP.Try importing it into a game engine into an empty project and see what's what.Unity, Unreal or Godot doesn't really matter since none of them seem to be the engine civ 5 uses. But it'll still give you some feedback on potential issues by checking more verbose logs which you probably don't get with nexus.
