GLB to FBX Converter

About This Tool

The GLB to FBX Converter translates assets from the GLB (GLTF binary) format into FBX, enabling compatibility with major DCC apps and game engines. Conceptually, the tool maps GLB data to FBX structures, preserving geometry, UVs, textures, skinning, and animations where supported. It is particularly valuable for studios migrating assets into Autodesk-centric pipelines or engines that prefer FBX for animation workflows. Core features include file validation, format mapping, and optional preservation of animations and materials. The tool operates as a backend conversion service that accepts a GLB file and optional parameters, producing a clean FBX artifact along with a concise mapping log. Use cases include asset handoffs between artists and engineers, preparing GLB exports for Maya or 3ds Max, and ensuring FBX compatibility for Unity and Unreal projects. The unique value lies in deterministic conversion of common GLB features to FBX, with explicit handling of textures and coordinate systems to minimize post-export tweaks. Typical workflow involves preparing assets in GLB, submitting via the file interface, receiving a ready-to-import FBX, and validating integrity in the target toolchain. The tool emphasizes data fidelity for meshes, textures, and skeletal data, while acknowledging limitations around shader graphs and nonstandard GLB features that may require manual adjustment in FBX-capable software.
