Batch Exporting Assets from Blender to UE5 with a Single FBX File

[@yanwar6033]

Thank you! I literally just googled "how to export many meshes in one FBX file" and came across your video, and it turns out it was posted a two hours ago

[@3DTudor]

That's some synchronization right there :)

[@Archpuzzle]

Thank you very much! This is a very helpful tutorial!

[@3DTudor]

Glad to hear it :)

[@AlehAoliege]

God, thanks for the vid. How many times I searched how to import models and only your video is useful!

[@3DTudor]

Good to hear this helped out for you then! :)

WOW awesome content as usual, could you guys do a Shadowrun themed build sometime?

[@3DTudor]

I actually had to look this one up and I have to say I'm really likening the aesthetics :) so yes in the future we may just build something in this style :)

Thankyou!

Happy to help! :)

9:49 I’m hoping this may might help me with consolidation of multiple textures on one static mesh.

[@3DTudor]

Yeah, that would work, if the object has multiple materials, it will show up within the details tab.

[@thelaw3536]

glss allows you to export the texture so it's applied in Unreal.

[@3DTudor]

gltf? I actually experimented with that format and wasn't too confident on using on modular kit. I find it that setting up material instances manually saves up on performance instead of having multiple unique materials created by the format. But who knows, maybe there is a more efficient way and i just haven't found it yet :)

[@etienne4081]

What about tiking the apply transform ? Thanks, I didn't know why the pivot point was random, it had to be packed in world origin

[@3DTudor]

To apply transforms for all and modifiers, all at once, you could use object > convert > mesh

[@Krucek_v2]

I have a problem with textures, basically have over 50+ building segments that use the same multiple textures (eg, Wood, Glass, White wall etc) but once I export them, all these textures get multiplied by how many segments I want to export. so now I have for example White_wall050. Is there a way to prevent that?

[@3DTudor]

GLTF file format might help you with this problem as it can store created materials.

[@Krucek_v2]

@@3DTudor Thank you mate

[@coffeediction]

Great stuff! What about several objects with their modifiers active, parented to an empty, and exported as 1 fbx?

[@3DTudor]

modifiers don't translate to another program and need to be applied beforehand (there is an option to apply them before export in export window)

[@DailyPaily]

Particle system work the same ?

[@3DTudor]

Not sure what you mean... UE5 uses Niagara system now so it's a bit different...

[@chadyonfire7878]

[@3DTudor]
