This is ofcourse so that you have to buy their 3dxchange package. realy a bad business strategy

It's wise to get your facts straight before commenting. The FBX key has nothing to do with 3DXchange.

I'm wondering how you generate an FBX Key for a model that you want to bring in from outside? 

What is the W-W-H about the FBX Key need? 

What sort of model do you want to bring in, and where do you want to bring in to - Character Creator or iClone?

To use a model in iClone there is no requirement to have an FBX key for the file. iClone can not import FBX files, these need to be first converted in 3DXchange and then saved/exported as iClone files - 3DXchange does this automatically.

Character Creator doesn't import any Character files created from scratch in another software, these need to be imported and converted in 3DXchange and then sent to iClone.

The requirements and needs for using and generating an FBX key have been explained in several posts in this thread already.

Sorry, but I'm missing something... 
As practice, I tried to bring in an outside model (an IronMan from turboSquid from an OBJ file). I import it into 3DX fine, then apply to iClone7. It imports, but I cannot apply any animation to it without getting this message: "Cannot replace motion: Invalid file or avatar not compatible." 
If I save out an FBX, then try to open it in CC, I get the "need a key" message...but I don't have key...I don't even have a CLUE.

Apologies Wires, it's short for "What-Why-How"...not a well-known abbreviation, sorry...I'm from the 7th Level (and you know how weird we can be!)   Hah!   Ha...  Huh? 

Don't get frightened Wires, by "7th Level" I meant Illinois.
