I have not seen a straight conversion for DWG to IFC. I have everything I need in the DWG, I just want to turn it into an IFC. there are no attributes or any other data besides 3D geometry.
I'll settle for FBX to IFC, OBJ to IFC, DXF to IFC, etc.

Hi @jhauptmann,
We have a DWG to IFC tutorial that is a good starting place:

You can remove the sections that create the Property Sets, but you will need to keep the Aggregators to create the required geometry structure.
IFC requires generally solid geometry rather the surface geometry you are likely to get from FBX, OBJ or DXF. You can use the SolidBuilder transformer to convert surfaces to solids, but they must be properly closed in 3D to succeed. As well, you may wish to write to IfcBuildingElementProxy instead of IfcSpace, since this feature type can be used for pretty much any object.
