I imported an FBX into 3DXchange7 Pipeline. It has a many animations with it which does show correctly in the Perform Editor. I then go to character setup and everything lines up nicely with Maya IK so I convert. I then apply to iClone which seems to work without a problem. In iClone I am not seeing my animations so this is where I'm getting stuck. Nothing on the timeline, I don't see any specific folders with the animations, so I am confused on how to use it from here. Suggestions?

Have you tried right clicking your avatar and selecting Perform? If the animations were transferred correctly you should see them listed when you click on Perform.

I don't see that option when I right click on the avatar.

I was going to suggest that you need to select Export Animation before exporting:

However, when testing this with Heidi, which has a Perform menu, it didn't work.

I imported Heidi in 3DXchange, which shows all actions in the Perform Editor, and then exported.

The re-imported Heidi has no Perform menu in iClone. I also tried with Export Animation checked, but that didn't make any difference.

So you may have discovered a bug...:w00t:

I appreciate you trying, and with the way you explained it I'm understanding better how it is supposed to work. Thanks  :) 

Sound like an issue on their end then.
