This FREE desktop application allows you to convert nuke Camera.chan files into either Autodesk® FBX® or Autodesk® Flame® .action files with the simplest of controls. It began as an idea of Chris Maynard based on the research for the NukeX tracking system. Justin Israel and me sorted out the code in python then ported it into individual desktop applications for convenient use. This is a python based solution that will provide extensibility to those interested in expanding its features. cmiVFX supports the open source growth of this application and is willing to share its source code to participating members of this community. The Autodesk® FBX® plug-in allows all types of data to be packaged into one file format that can be used by most of today’s 3D authoring software.

So we are distributing it for free, as part of the cmiApps. And there is a version for all three major operating systems, that you can download using the following links :

download: Linux 12.2 MB.
download: Windows 9.1 MB.
download: OSX 29.8 MB.
