Getting the hang of Maxscript now but I want to export each model as a seperate FBX but not sure how to go about it. There seems to be a considerable lack of documentation on how to use this.
I want to export each model as its own FBX and name the FBX to the model name.
Currently I select each model one by one and “Export Selected” as FBX.

The documentation for the FBX plugin can be found in Help -> MaxScript Help -> and search “FBX”. It will show you basically everything you need to know. How to export objects as an fbx (or any other format) can be found under the “3ds Max File Loading and Saving” heading. The following script will export each geometric object to an fbx file in your current project folders export folder using whatever fbx settings are already loaded.
for current in geometry do
(
select current
newFileName = current.name
newFilePath = pathConfig.GetDir #export
completeFilePath = (newFilePath + "/" + newFileName)
exportFile completeFilePath #noPrompt selectedOnly:true using:FBXEXP
)
clearSelection()

Thanks deftang1. Works like a dream.
When I searched for “FBX” in the maxscript it only brought up changing parameters and didn’t actually give an example on how actually export it.
By any chance would you know how to get maxscript to automate shadowmap rendering for each model...? Thats the next issue.

Could you be more specific on what you are trying to do? Are you talking about the shadows and displacement rollout in the mental ray renderer?
