on one of our machines, the fbx export is always greyed out. If you open a brand new scene and attempt to export a default item it is still greyed out. The only other post about this didn't have a real solution. They mentioned they changed their fps but that has no effect.

The Export FBX option will be greyed out if you have nothing selected. So go into Scene Manager and select everything you want to export (character, props etc.). Once you do this the objects in the viewport will have yellow bounding boxes around them and the Export FBX option should then become available. Does this work for you?

it is still greyed out with an item selected

Same issue for me as well.

Looks like this is an issue for me now, not able to export selected under fbx for anything.

To narrow down the cause of the problem, try starting a new project and just load or create a single primitive prop like a Box. Then select it and choose File > Export > Export FBX. Does this bring up the Export panel and allow you to choose the various export options?

If you find you are unable to export anything to FBX, then please uninstall iClone 8 and perform a clean install of the latest full version. Then try to export again.

It looks like in a fresh project im able to export things like i want, the issue is my character is built and everything is all set up inside that project, any way to fix this in that project?

Sorry for another quote, found something out, in my current project i can import a prop, and export it no problem, it only seems to be accessories i can't export.

Cloth/Accessories or any other items attached/rigged to the character cannot be exported to FBX (exporting to OBJ is possible).
You have to detach them from character (converting to props) before you can export them to FBX.
