WARNING        .vpb import requires a VRED Pro or Design installation and a VRED valid license. Also, the path to the VRED executable must be set in the Pixyz preferences.

When importing a .vpb file, a dedicated window will appear above the default import window.

.vpb supported features:

• 3D model (nurbs/mesh)
• Animations
• Transform and material variants
• Variant sets
• Textures
• UVs
• Ambient occlusion*

*To import ambient occlusion as vertex colors, open Autodesk VRED and set ExportVertexColors to True in Preferences > FileIO > FBX > Export :

Limitations: 

Due to the complexity and the large possibilities offered by VRED, Pixyz does not guarantee a full extract of .vpb files. 

Here are the known-limitations regarding VRED scene conversion using Pixyz:

• Environment: lights and cameras, along with environments textures are not imported 
• Multi pass, layered and decal materials are not imported
• For animation import: animations directly placed on meshes are not imported
