camera FOV export from 3dsMAX to Matinee

[zejoke]

Hi,
We're trying to export a camera from 3dsmax (fbx format) and then import it in matinee using the file/import menu in matinee.

Though I've read that doing this a FOV track will be created, it's not, though there is a FOV animation in max.
Does anybody know how we can import FOV data animation into matinee ? Or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

I'm using version 10246

Thank you.

probably has to be named in a certain way.

the FBX version may also make a difference in support of this.

Hey zejoke,

Did you ever find a resolution to this? I'm having the same issue exporting FBX cameras from Motionbuilder and bringing them into Matinee. No FOV track is created, although the animation exists.

Thanks.
