Howdy,

As the title states, the uvw coordinates are importing upside down, or Y coordinate flipped. Is there a setting or flag to check if the file’s uvw coordinates are +Y up or down?

Adios,

I think the texture coordinates are always oriented the same way relative to the texture. Your ‘up’ might not match FBX’s ‘up’. I just do 1- y to get the correct orientation for rendering.

Howdy,

So, is the 0,0 uv coordinate in an fbx file always at bottom left? In my app 0,0 is top left.

Adios,
Cactus Dan
