What FBX-glTF-conv is

FBX-glTF-conv is a free command-line utility that converts FBX files into glTF files. Users provide an input FBX path and an output ending in .gltf or .glb. The project describes it as a component used with Cocos Creator and as an alternative to FBX2glTF for that purpose. Its listed conversion support includes meshes, scene hierarchy, skinning, blend shapes or morph targets, and skeletal node transform and blend shape animations. Supported materials include Lambert and Phong, while textures can use JPEG or PNG images with options for resolving textures and controlling image paths. The project lists Windows, macOS, and Linux, and reports testing on Windows, macOS 10.13 or later, and Ubuntu 22.04; Ubuntu 20.04 is unsupported. Additive cluster mode, FBX-specific node inherit types, cameras, and lights are marked unfinished. Building requires Windows or macOS, FBX SDK 2019 or higher, vcpkg, and CMake. The software is offered under the MIT License, including its as-is warranty disclaimer.
