MakeHuman-Generated FBX shows up without Textures in Mixamo
Posted: Sat Oct 23, 2021 1:24 pm
Hello,
I am trying to animate a model that I have created in MakeHuman by uploading it to Mixamo [1]. The problem I am getting is that Mixamo is showing a plastic model without any of the textures.
When I use the FBX export function of MakeHuman, I get an FBX file "model.fbx" together with a folder "textures". I tried the following:
- Zip both "model.fbx" and "textures" and upload the zip to Mixamo. This does not show the textures in Mixamo.
- Zip both "model.fbx" and the files inside "textures" (i.e. FBX and PNGs are in the same folder) and upload the zip to Mixamo. This does not show the textures in Mixamo.
- Perform the two previous operations by using OBJ instead of FBX. This does not show the textures in Mixamo.
- Open "model.fbx" in Blender, and re-export by embedding textures i.e. the FBX now contains the textures, and upload the FBX to Mixamo. This does not show the textures in Mixamo.
I am able to use Mixamo with other FBX models (made by me, or download from the web) and it shows textures just fine.
What can I do to solve this issue?
In [2], I share the model I am trying to animate in Mixamo. The (~26 MBs) zip contains the FBX and the textures folder.
Cheers.
