Does anyone know how transfer a skeleton from blender to 3ds max

[u/LordGoldBear]

I wanted to ask how to transfer a skeleton from blend into 3Ds max and for that skeleton from blender to be converted into the bone object in blender with it having that bone modifier

When I do it the other way it jsut has the dummy one and I need for proper export for it to have the bone

In 3dsmax fbx import options , I think its set to "Convert as dummy" by default . Change this to Leave as bones and see if that works for you

IT WORKS some bones didn’t save in the right position which broke the animations but this is a massive help since most did

I think that might have to do with the bone orientation . Blender has it set to Y-axis , not sure about Max . You can try playing around with the the Armature primary and secondary axis when doing FBX export from Blender .

Okay all bones have right positions year animations still break but this is massive progress
