The Take Manager lets you store FBX files with single or multiple takes without the need to open the file in MotionBuilder. This tool was created because of the need for an efficient way to extract animation takes from FBX files and create separate FBX files with each of them.

FBX Take Manager

In the past, extracting animation takes required opening MotionBuilder. But using MotionBuilder can be time-consuming when working with several FBX files that contain a large number of animation takes.

Select the FBX file in the left pane, and the takes contained in the file display in the right pane.

• Save data from any take from the loaded FBX file. For example, you can save data with or without characters. See Supported Take Elements for more information.
• Rename a take without opening the file in MotionBuilder.
• Add prefixes or suffixes to multiple take names in single or multiple FBX files.
