Processing FBX files that contain embedded media

Applications that render or otherwise process FBX files must access the textures and other media files.

If media files are embedded in a binary FBX file, when you import the file into the application, the FBX SDK importer will extract the media from the FBX file and copy them to a directory. By default:

• The directory for the media is a subdirectory of the directory containing the FBX file.
• The name of that subdirectory is based on the name of the FBX file, but with a .fbm extension replacing the .fbx. If, for example, the FBX file is MyScene.fbx, the subdirectory is named MyScene.fbm\.
