FBX export doesn't include equipment

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Create a character with equipment
2.Export as FBX

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the equipment to be exported along with the character and animation 
data. Instead, the only piece of equipment it exports is the cape; the rest is 
ignored.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
7.0.1 r614 on Windows XP

To clarify a bit more:

It appears as though the exported equipment is highly selective; it's always 
the same, though, but chest, boots and legs equipment is exported fine, but 
shoulder, head, hands for instance are not.

Is there a reason for excluding certain slots from the export?

The FBX format was written by a member of the community, but for some reason, 
they didn't include the attached items into the exporter.

Until it is fixed, I would recommend exporting the character as an OBJ or LWO 
file, grab the extra equipment, then attaching/assigning them to the bones in 
the FBX export.

I might just see if i can help with including attached items in the export, i 
might be of help even with my limited skills.

Can this be listed as a feature request? Or is it already?

I open my FBXs with Autodesk FBX Viewer, by the way. Will attach a log.txt 
tomorrow, just in case, but I think the issue here is clear ( in that the items 
are simply not included in the export by choice of the original programmer ).
