FAQ
FBX to RAD Conversion
What are FBX files?
The FBX vector format was initially associated with Filmbox and created as a version of the FLM format, offering more interoperability. Filmbox was a predecessor of Autodesk's MotionBuilder, created for motion capture devices by Canadian developer Kaydara, later acquired by Alias. Starting with 2006, FBX became a proprietary format of Autodesk. FBX is currently part of a set of tools known as Autodesk Gameware, used by designers in developing games and supporting character animation, AI and advanced user interfaces.
What are RAD files?
The RAD format is supported by a ray tracing application called Radiance, which contains several tools that support lighting simulation and measuring light levels. RAD files are often used in architectural project to design and evaluate lighting systems. Apart from lighting features, they can also save objects and materials, and they serve as input for OCT files that facilitate the scene rendering.
