To
install the Maya FBX plug-in:
- Find the 2013.3 FBX installer which is included with the Maya
2013.5 install package. - Remove
the old plug-in from the /usr/Autodesk/maya<ver>/bin/plug-ins/
(where <ver>
is the version of Maya you have installed,) directory by entering rm –f fbxmaya.so at the
command prompt. - Type
the following command to install the Maya FBX
plug-in:
./fbx<ver>_maya<ver>_linux_enu
(Where FBX<ver> is the
version of the Maya FBX plug-in you have
installed).
This
installs the plug-in to the following directory:
/usr/Autodesk/maya<ver>/bin/plug-ins/
(where <ver>
is the version of Maya you have installed).
If you
install Maya in another folder, you can specify the path on the Command Line
after: ./fbx<ver>_maya<ver>_linux_enu /home/maya/mypath/
(Where FBX<ver> is the
version of the Maya FBX plug-in you have
installed.)
- Start
Maya and navigate to Window > Settings/Preferences > Plug-in
Manager. - Activate
the Loaded option for Fbxmaya.so in the Plug-in Manager. - Activate
the Fbxmaya.so Autoload option so Maya loads the Maya FBX plug-in automatically at start-up.
