3DS MAX is also no newer than this version.
It is only needed to export models to old games.
Plugins are available only for versions 4 and 5 of MAX, so they are needed.
Therefore, it is more convenient to do everything in Blender and then only import to max and from there to the game.
FBH would be a good option but in those versions it is only 6.1 and it is not in the blender as a binary one.
Would remove this support in 2.8 then absolutely.

I'm not sure why it should be kept, do you really need to be able to create meshes in latest versions and open them in 2.63? It's still possible to open the file in the official 2.79b release and save them with this option.

3DS does not export animation? When will it be at 2.8?

When will this return obranto interesting?

In 2.79 there is no such thing, it normally cuts according to my form.

Not sure I understand correctly:

• has this file been exported from blender? (afaics the exporter should write texture(paths), cycles/nodetrees are probably not supported)
• I can write a 3ds and import again, and if the textures are e.g. in the same folder than the 3ds, blender will import the 3ds back just fine...
• please post the corresponding .blend file (including textures) you are exporting from

To me it seems blender2.8 behaves a little differently from 2.79 in regards to selection:

All is fine if you have the Keep UV and edit mode mesh selection in syncoption ON.
If you have this ON you should have a UVs unwrapped and in 0-1 UV space.
(this was kind of reported before in T57060 -- and eventually closed but issue with selection persist actually, see the following)

Now to the difference (see attached file):

T57640.blend526 KBDownload

In 2.8, it makes a difference which UVs you have selected in the UVEditor, in 2.79 this was not the case.
If you have a single UV selected (in UV editor), but select all faces in the 3D view and call unwrap from the 3D view then

• 2.79 will unwrap all and put them in 0-1 space
• 2.8 will unwrap all (but seperated in two islands), but only pack one part in 0-1 space the other is somewhere out of 0-1 space
  
  I think this should not be intentional? @Campbell Barton (campbellbarton) : mind having a look?

That format is a moving target, so it was decided to not support all kinds of variants.

Blender can not read and export to fbx 6.1 binary. ((((
It is necessary to try to alter in obj.

Thanks for the suggestion, but we do not accept feature requests or suggestions on this tracker (use forums or bf-funboard ML for that).
Also, BGE (and all related things, like textured faces) has been removed from blender2.8, so this is no more maintained area of code. Thanks for the report anyway.

Smoothing groups will not add normal as in 3d max?
If you make a model in some kind of game, these groups are often used, and they are not normally exported from the blender.

RGB color can be made as in all editors by whole values?
Red 255
Green 255
Blue 255 = White color!

When will the discussion of the editor uv?
It is very interesting that there will be added or changed.

I very much hope that all fields with decimal values can be in the settings lead to 1 title and keep these settings common for all scenes.
For example, as in the picture, so that you can remove all unnecessary values to 1.23 or 1.555 or .1.3344 etc and degrees in the same way 3.3 degrees or .123.77 and so on for all fields were in 1 format specifically for export.

As it says at the very top:

This will not replace blender's default keymap. This is an alternative keymap that will make Blender behave more like industry standard apps.

This keymap is for users who use mixed-software pipelines where it's impractical to switch hotkeys constantly, and also for users of other software packages who would like to try out Blender.

Again, this will not replace blender's default keymap.

Hi, will it be possible to assign a key to the material editor in 2.8? At 3d the max he was assigned to M.
It would be great if the blender would be something similar to compact material editor and safe material editor( in blender texture editor as node editor) like modal type.

in 3ds max Key M = Material Editor,
cann in blender set M = Shader Editor?
Is it possible to make keys in the blender to select Workspace ?
in blender 2.79 scene name ( uv editing, , Default)?

There are two checkboxes for each of these states:
Overlay When on, the highlight includes a translucent overlay on the object. Default=off.
A similar option I would like for a blender.
This box select in 3ds max and true 2 settings.

You can not make a way to work with subobjects to activate the highlight of the active object?
2 options with connections,
1 only the side stroke of the object, now it is only in object mode.
2 stroke mode and solid illumination.
This mode can be turned off by default.
Colors and thickness should be customizable.
It would look nice and maybe it was.

Я хочу возможность задавать количество повторов изображения как это можно делать в 3д макс или Гудини или Мая.Сейчас повторы могут быть только бесконечные или вообще без повторов. Если это накладно сделать в билд для 2.79 возможно это добавить в 2.8?
I want to be able to set the number of times an image is repeated as it can be done in 3D max or Houdini or Maya. Now the repeats can only be infinite or without repeats at all. If it's expensive to do this in build for 2.79, is it possible to add it to 2.8?

Mind sharing your .blend file with packed textures so I can have a look?

Marking as incomplete for the time being...

The number of times the texture image is repeated, counting outward in eight directions (the four corners and the four sides).

{F3396224}if Tiles x or y set example 2 repaint set 2.
Default repaint set tinfinitely

I wonder whether it will be possible to change the size of the manipulators? The manipulator for extrusion seems to me sometimes too big.
Will the manipulators for the uv editor be reworked? It would be nice to have there 2 options for working with faces, 1 as of now, and 2 same arrows as for vertices.

You can’t though. If you want to model the solar system to scale, your scale is different from if you want to model an ant. It has to be. That’s why there’s a scale setting, to say what 1 unit means. What you are talking about is something else, which is ability to only *display* a certain unit of measurement. We could add that, but it would have to be a separate setting.

in 3ds max Selection Lock Toggle turns selection locking on and off. Locking the selection prevents you from inadvertently selecting something else in a complex scene. KeyMap Space.

1 In the new version, can presets be saved for default settings in all sections?
2 when resizing for example by cm, the dimensions will always be measured in cm, and not as now 100 cm automatically converted to 1 m?

1.0cm 1.00cm 1.000cm size?
I will ask here because I do not know where it can be discussed.

The layout that will default to the blender.

This will be the standard layout now in 2.8 as in many applications?

Here's something like this I hope there will be in view of will be in 2.8 if I correctly understood the description above for primitives?

In 2.8, will the interactive creation of polygons be as in many paid packages judging by the manipulators described for primitives?
It's great.

Binary 6.1 add hardly anyone will be so here I agree to better remove altogether what is now and leave only 1 format.

Will let @Bastien Montagne (mont29) have a (final?) word on this.

blender is not using Autodesks FBX SDK (iirc for legal reasons - free but not opensource...) but instead something that is reverse engineered.
So it is not as easy as changing a preset/option unfortunately... Supporting every flavor of FBX is therefor tedious and timeconsuming.
Can this be done? Probably yes. Will it be done? I have my doubts. But like I said: lets see what Bastien has to say.

Another possibility would be to get someone external paid to do this (you could try here or here)

Old 3ds max no show uv in text fbx. (3DS max 5.0 ) for example.

You can try May maybe there will be it the same way. I tried the trial 3d 3d 2015. Only the binary FBX works fine, but it does not exist in the blender.
