Our FBX repair tool will not intentionally reduce the number of vertices or faces in your 3D model.

Is it free to use the FBX file repair tool?

Yes! Our FBX repair tool is 100% free to use.

Are there any usage limits when repairing my FBX file?

No, you can repair as many files as you wish. We do not have any limits when using our FBX repair tool.

How long does it take to repair my FBX?

We aim to process FBX repairs as quickly as possible; this usually takes around 5 seconds; however, this may be longer depending on the file size and data needed to be repaired.

What does the FBX repair process involve?

Once your FBX has been selected, it will undergo some initial checks to verify that the file has some basic information. If the initial checks pass, we then upload the file to our servers for more detailed analysis.

FBX files are an open 3D file format developed by Autodesk for use with their Maya and 3Ds Max applications. An FBX file may contain any number of 3D objects, their associated geometry, materials, textures, animations, and more, all within a single convenient package.

The content of an FBX file is a mix of binary and ASCII text, producing a format that is both human-readable and compact. Due to their compact size, ease of use, and widespread support, FBX files are a popular choice for creating 3D animations and are also a staple in the videogame development scene.

The development of the FBX format continues to this day, with new features being included in each release. Along with being used within Autodesk's own editing solutions, FBX files can also be opened and edited in other popular 3D modeling applications, such as Blender.

Repairing a FBX File

FBX 3D Model File Header Data

As is common amongst 3D model file formats, FBX file formats may contain data within their header to help identify the type of file should the filename extension prove to be inaccurate or missing. With the header data from the FBX 3D model file, we are able to determine core information such as object count, vertex count, faces, textures, and other information, which can then be used to check the validity of the file.

Vertices, Faces and Geometry

This data forms the core element of any FBX model and, if damaged, cannot be easily recovered. Our FBX repair tool will try its best to repair and reconstruct any 3D model file it detects to be missing geometric data.

Textures

With some 3D model file formats, such as FBX, textures are stored as separate files. If these are missing, they will not be able to be restored. Our tool will detect these external texture file references and ignore them. For other formats where the textures are embedded within the main 3D model file, these will be repaired where possible.
