The Maya FBX Plug-in comes with Maya and is installed automatically. This procedure is included so you can upgrade your Maya FBX Plug-in with later versions.

NoteThe Maya FBX Plug-in that accompanies your version of Maya may not be the most recent version. It is a good practice to check for updates, as each subsequent Maya FBX Plug-in version has enhanced functionality, and is available free. See Web updates for instructions on how to verify that your plug-in version is the latest.
ImportantPlug-ins run only on the version of Maya for which they are created; verify that the version of the Maya FBX Plug-in that you are installing is appropriate for the version of Maya you are running.
