When i try to load my fbx model on a site there are many warnings in console ![123](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/threejs/original/2X/4/43ee61ccd2a0ef564c8023ce8fe070de08eb31b7.png) How can I resolve this issue? An example page is [here](http://izgt-wp.tw1.ru/three/) And my code is basically a standard code of the “Samba Dancing” example, only scripts are cdn. ``` ``` three.js webgl - FBX loader ```

three.js - FBXLoader
Character and animation from Mixamo

``` ---

Testing your model in [creators3d model viewer](https://www.creators3d.com/online-viewer) shows all textures and colors intact (the warnings are still there.) 1. Warnings appear because your exporter uses unsupported parameters and materials. If possible, convert your model to glb / gltf, this may resolve most of the warnings. 2. Your model is not loading because of AnimationMixer code. Animation you’re trying to clip (`object.animations[0]`) does not seem to exist on your model. ![s](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex035/uploads/threejs/original/2X/0/01eb21b24f590549a6f0066430ef3b2c60bc2995.png) ---

I tried to remove animation code, so error is gone. But warnings are still there so the problem most likely in unsupported parameters and materials ---

I suggest you import your FBX in Blender and then export to GLB. ---

See this issue on GH: > > > Description of the problem > When attempting to load the FBX file contained within the example below, we are seeing the following error: > ... The problem is you’re using a 3DS Max physically based material of some kind. FBX format doesn’t officially support PBR materials, so these get exported from Max to FBX in a non-standard way which the `FBXLoader` can’t read. See also this issue for the equivalent problem in Maya: > > > PBR materials are exported to FBX from Maya using a proprietary extension ( Maya|xxxx). > A couple of these were added in #15844... It should be easy enough to add support for these materials to the loader. They would map to `MeshStandardMaterial` or `MeshPhysicalMaterial`. It’s just a matter of tracking down what FBX parameters such as `3dsMax|Parameters|base_color_map` correspond to which three.js material parameters. There are still likely to be a number of parameters that we can’t support as 3DS Max materials are much more complex than three.js materials so there would never be a perfect match (some parameters would have to be ignored). Alternatively, here’s a couple of workarounds: 1. Switch the materials in Max to use the non-PBR “Standard” material (not to be confused with the three.js `MeshStandardMaterial` which is a PBR material). 2. Use a tool like [FBX2glTF](https://github.com/facebookincubator/FBX2glTF) to convert the file. 3. Load the file in Blender and export to glTF 4. Use the Babylon glTF exporter for Max. They have [extensive documentation here](https://doc.babylonjs.com/extensions/Exporters/3DSMax_to_glTF). In each of 2-4 you are still likely to run into issue with the non-standard PBR material extensions. You’ll have to test these out and see what gives the best match to your original materials.
