FBX version
 
 
 

Expand the FBX Version menu to select an FBX version to export to.

The following table lists the different versions available for you to select from the FBX Exporter option.

NoteYou do not need to change this option if you are using the latest FBX 2009 plug-ins in the source and destination applications. This option is only for exporting older versions of the Maya FBX Plug-in, not the application, unless the latest plug-in is not available for that specific version. For example, if you want to export from Maya 2008 and import this in Maya 8.5, using the latest FBX 2009 versions of the plug-ins in both applications, you do not need to change the export FBX version. The file will be compatible using the FBX200900 FBX version.
