Hello guys. It's my first time posting

I'm playing around with C++ scripting for c4d and now I'm trying to export an FBX in this way

\> String fbx_filepath = "HARDCODED_PATH.fbx";
\> 
\> Bool saved = SaveDocument(doc, fbx_filepath, SAVEDOCUMENTFLAGS_DONTADDTORECENTLIST, fbx_plugin_id);

It exported the file and saved it correctly, but take the parameters from last manual export on the export option in c4d.

Can I set these options from my script? can I get all the options available for this exporter?

EDIT:
It seems not to be take in consideration the parameters passed through SetWorldPluginData. Any ideas?

Thanks

PS: Sorry for my caveman english.

I'm not sure if I understand your question.
But this is an example of using .fbx export that works fine for me in R13:

//To get/set an exporter settings we have to send a MSG_RETRIEVEPRIVATEDATA message to the exporter  
//We can then access and change the exporter settings retrieving its container instance  
//Here's an example of how to setup an FBX export in C++:  
  
  
#include "..\..\..\..\resource\modules\fbx\res\description\Ffbxexport.h"  
  
  
BaseList2D *exporter;  
BasePlugin *plug = FindPlugin(1026370, PLUGINTYPE_SCENESAVER);  
if (plug && plug->Message(MSG_RETRIEVEPRIVATEDATA, &exporter))  
{  
  BaseContainer *data = exporter->GetDataInstance();  
  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_ASCII, FALSE);  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_BAKE_ALL_FRAMES, FALSE);  
  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_SAVE_NORMALS, TRUE);  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_ANIMATION, TRUE);  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_TEXTURES, TRUE);  
  data->SetLong(FBXEXPORT_EMBED_TEXTURES, TRUE);  
  
  SaveDocument(doc, "C:\\model.fbx", SAVEDOCUMENTFLAGS_DONTADDTORECENTLIST, 1026370);  
}

Instead of SetLong for R15 I must call SetInt32 but It work.

I was trying to do the same using GetWorldPluginData and SetWorldPluginData. I can retrieve the parameters but I can't set them.

Thank you very much.

I can't tell from your answer.
Is it working OK for you now. Or are you still having problems?

Now it's working! Thanks to you.

My previous attempt:

	BaseContainer* bc = GetWorldPluginData(FBX_PLUGIN_ID);
	Bool saved = false;
	if (bc != NULL)
	{
		bc->SetInt32(FBXEXPORT_SAVE_NORMALS, 1);
		saved = SetWorldPluginData(FBX_PLUGIN_ID, *bc, false);	
	}
	if (saved)
	{
		GePrint("PARAMETERS SET CORRECTLY");
	}
	else
	{
		GePrint("PARAMETERS NOT SET");
	}
	saved = SaveDocument(doc, fbx_filepath, SAVEDOCUMENTFLAGS_DONTADDTORECENTLIST, FBX_PLUGIN_ID);

Now I'm exporting an FBX from my plugin.

When I'm trying to export Textures using the exporter I noticed that textures are exported only if "Embed textures" is checked. This behavior happen using the plugin from file->export->fbx and using the SaveDocument invocation from my plugin.

Any ideas to fix it?
