Blender rig exporter/animation importer

#1723

This is a hard one as if I’m correct you might have to import it as a obj from blender. Also are you using the Rbx Animations addon?
Either way thse are a few things I can think of to help you:

  1. Import your export into blender and see if you get the same issue in roblox.

  2. Make sure all the bones are linked as one skeleton and not peranted as joints can be flipped due to peranting not being exported properly.

  3. Check your FBX export setting, especially with the “armeture” section as your bones might be exporting on the wrong axes.

For some reason I can import the animation and it properly imports using the plugin, but then when I save the keyframe sequence and try to then use it, it doesn’t import anything into moon animator, it’s just blank.

Nevermind, I was importing an R15 anim into an R6. It works fine

It’s good but thank you! I found the solution:

  • Ensure RootPart / HumanoidRootPart is anchored prior to exporting.

  • Ensure Model is exported at origin (0, 0, 0)

  • In Blender, keep origins set to World origin.

  • When rigging use ‘Node Only’ feature.

Using all of these I was able to export and re-import perfectly. :blush:

I tried doing the exact steps shown in the post but whenever I import an animation the rig just doesn’t move at all, does anyone know how to fix this?

Nice to hear that you figured it out.

Its probably also import for everyone to know this knowledge as I know a lot of problems can occur when exporting/importing.

#1729

Are you playing it in the Animation Editor or when playing the game?

Because the anination won’t play in game unleds the animation is called in a script.

Late reply but this is how legacy is supposed to work. Roblox messes up part names when exporting humanoids for whatever reason (very annoying) so you have to manually rename the parts to match the bone and click “constraint matching parts”. The regular export deletes the humanoid and leaves part names in tact but mesh and texturing suffer.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I’m still pretty new to the plugin

In blender I made a test animation which works fine, but when I export it to studio the orientation and the position of the handle change

Studio:

May I ask where exactly it exports the rig? Because I still cannot find the path or anything relevant to where it exports the rig, I searched everything but couldn’t find the export data.
