Question by justking14 · Feb 22, 2014 at 10:31 PM · animation import export maya

no matter what i do i can't import an animation from maya

I've tried using .ma and fxb and following half a dozen videos, but so far nothing works. For many of them, I can see it move in the preview, but when I drag it to the screen and press play it just stands there.
Also once I get it working, how do I script it to work on demand?
