Allows you to import and export glTF files during runtime and in editor. glTF is a new opensource 3d model transmission format which supports everything you'll ever need from a format in Unity. Read more about glTF here

Focusing on simplicity and ease of use, GLTFUtility aims to be an import-and-forget solution, keeping consistency with built-in functionality.

• KHR_lights_punctual #25
• KHR_draco_mesh_compression #27 WARNING: Said to cause issues on WebGL.
• KHR_mesh_quantization

• ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null in build but not in editor.
  • This is most likely due to shaders being stripped from the build. To fix this, add the GLTFUtility shaders to the Always Included Shaders list in Graphic Settings.
• Draco compression does not work on iOS and UWP

// Single thread
using Siccity.GLTFUtility;

void ImportGLTF(string filepath) {
   GameObject result = Importer.LoadFromFile(filepath);
}

// Multithreaded
using Siccity.GLTFUtility;

void ImportGLTFAsync(string filepath) {
   Importer.ImportGLTFAsync(filepath, new ImportSettings(), OnFinishAsync);
}

void OnFinishAsync(GameObject result, AnimationClip[] animations) {
   Debug.Log("Finished importing " + result.name);
}

To ensure that Unity includes the GLTFUtility shaders in builds, you must add these shaders to the 'Always Included Shaders' list.

1. Open Edit -> Project Settings
2. Open Graphics
3. Scroll to Always Included Shaders
4. Under Size, increase the value by 4 and hit Enter.
5. In the Project panel, navigate to Packages/GLTFUtility/Materials/Built-in.
6. In this directory are 4 .shader files.
7. Drag and drop each of the 4 files into one of the 4 newly created rows in Always Included Shaders.
