FBX export (models) to 3DSMAX

Question

Original User: eorriols

hello,

I met the same problem with collada, obj or fbx export. I built my street graph with shapes files (import from IGN) and i assigned to the streets the rule :  Example_Paris__2010_3/rules/paris.cga.
I tested a lot of export combination, shape groups, no optimization, forced normals; merge mesh, maybe i missed the good one.
The pavements and the curbs are not exported  like i can see the models in the city engine viewport.  In 3DSMAX : With shape groups there is a no connection between groups and without i got a strange deformation of the mesh.
I join to this message the results. Maybe there is a simple thing to do.

city engine 2012.3 build 0124  (version 64 bits)
3DSMAX 2011 (32 & 64 bits)
FBX plugin in 3DSMAX : 2013.1

thanks a lot mathias !

It seems magic, there is no more flicking in 3DSMAX and Virtools. Pavements are perfects in both sofwares.
our production chain : city engine <-> 3DSMAX  -> 3DVIA VIrtools5
Now we got the road network, we can now finish the links corrections of the street graphs and work on the buildings integration. 🙂
I join a screen from 3DVIA Virtools 5 : this is the roads of Boulogne Billancourt with the cga paris rule.
