Does axys support direct loading of FBX file?

I think this is necessary since converting FBX files to C3B/C3T files cannot be done by the game alone if the game is running in a smart phone.

Plz look here:
axys/tools/fbx-conv/README.md

fbxconverter version 0.7 It is for cocos2d-x after version v3.3
Convert .fbx to .c3t used by cocos2d-x. Thanks to libgdx fbx-conv. We use their code and do some change.
You can get the source code from the address below: https://github.com/cocos2d-x/fbx-conv

Direct loading is not supported.

Any chance of adding direct loading of fbx to axys? Is it very complicated in terms of coding?

A simple implementation would be converting fbx-conv from a command line utility to API such that we can call this API to dynamically convert fbx to c3b directly inside the iphone. Then we read the c3b file.

You or everybody can write an extension or a PR. (please mark it as answer)

Plz Check the license also.
axys is MIT.

FBX SDK has been used in cocos2dx long time ago. How come adding an API on top of the command which serves the same function would violate the license?

[aismann]

It was only a hint.

Maybe this is also an interesting sides.
