Activate this option to include (or embed) all media associated with your scene in the FBX file itself. For example, texture images.
Activate the “Embed Media” option to make the FBX plug-in include (embed) associated media (textures, for example) within the FBX file, which it then extracts to an .FBM folder at import. The plug-in copies the embedded media to a <fileName>.fbm folder in the same location as the FBX file and is named after the FBX file. Since this media is contained within the FBX file itself, this has an impact on file size. Therefore, use this option only when you transport an FBX file to a location where the original media source is no longer accessible by the receiver.
If you disable the “Embed Media” option, the FBX plug-in stores the relative and absolute paths of the associated media files at export time. This causes problems if, for some reason, the path is no longer accessible. Make sure that the associated media is accessible to ensure the proper import of these media files.
Convert images to portable format (TIFF)
Activate this option to convert your textures images into TIFF format, which makes them readable in other applications that do not support your image type.
If the destination application supports the image type, the plug-in does not apply the TIFF conversion, even if you activated this option at export time. This behavior is governed by what the destination application supports, and the conversion only occurs if needed.
