Understanding GLB and FBX file formats

The GLB file format is a binary form of glTF (GL Transmission Format), which is a standard for 3D scenes and models using the JSON standard. It is widely used for real-time 3D applications and is supported by many 3D software products.

The FBX file format (Filmbox) is a proprietary file format (.fbx) owned by Autodesk. It is used to provide interoperability between digital content creation applications. FBX is also part of Autodesk Gameware, a series of video game middleware.

Converting GLB to FBX

Converting a GLB file to an FBX format can be a bit tricky as not all 3D-related software or converters support this conversion directly. However, one of the best software to perform this conversion is Blender.

Steps to convert GLB to FBX using Blender

  1. Open Blender and go to File → Import → glTF 2.0 (.glb/.gltf).
  2. Select the GLB file you want to convert.
  3. After importing, go to File → Export → FBX (.fbx).
  4. Choose the location where you want to save the converted file and click on the 'Export FBX' button.

Using command line for conversion

If you are comfortable with using the command line, you can use the FBX Converter tool from Autodesk. Here is a sample command:

FBXConverter file.glb file.fbx

Note: This command assumes that the FBX Converter is installed and the executable is in your system's PATH.
