What .fbx modeling software options are there?

Are there any 3D modeling software out there that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg?

Try Blender. It is free and it exports as FBX, even though it may be a bit troublesome i guess. There are even some tutorials made by the community if you search the forums.

Hi ,

You can try Blender, it is free though it has a steep learning curve:

Have a great day!

Some artists at Epic also use Modo, it’s more than expensive than blender, but not as costly as Max or Maya.

Along side blender you can also go hexagon and daz , $20 for hex and daz is free. Much more user friendly than blender also it has, imho, much better UV mapping, rigging and animation software, you may not get built in physics but plugins will do away with that problem, I wouldn’t want to pay nearly $4000 for 3ds max and Maya until I see some profits either ha. I myself use blender and daz for animations, my cousin got into animations years ago and recommends hex over blender though

use blender, save your skeletal models in FBX and follow this steps Blender to UDK Player Model – Kris Redbeard they works for U4!
