Hello,

I would like to use the file node to bring in a FBX with aniamtion. When I point to the animated FBX file, it imports but without transforms. It is exported out of maya and is a simple parent rig with anim on transforms. I have tried baking the anim too. If i bring the FBX in via file - import it brings in the anim. I know there is meant to be away for the file node to see the anim but can not find any clear explenation or suggested workflow for this.

Any advice?

Thanks in advanced.

For anyone who runs into this issue, my colleage Julian Johnson figured it out even through the poor documentation. you need to add this:

xxxxx.fbx#,frame=$FF

this stuff should really just be a check box by now.
