This addon is highly specialised in exporting assets into game engines using glTF file format. It achieves that by giving the user access to a library that does most of the heavy lifting and a very fast way to run your code via buttons minimising time between exporting and seeing new changes within the game engine.
Have a look at the features section below to see if it fits your purpose, if you do not need any of this functionality I highly advise you to stick to the default glTF exporter.
Otherwise get started here
-
Additive workflow, start with nothing and add only what you need.
-
Non-destructively merge multiple meshes into one.
-
Add as many UV maps, vertex colors or shape keys to your meshes as you need.
-
Break down your complex scene into smaller files.
-
Easily add hierarchies, collections or singular objects.
-
Non-destructively remove objects with filters and blacklists.
-
No glTF scenes required, making it possible to create asset libraries (for example file containing only meshes).
-
Non-destructively strip bones from armatures with filters and blacklists.
-
Automated trimming of control bones and bone prefixes when using rigify armatures.
-
Use timeline markers, manual frame ranges or NLA tracks to bake animations.
-
Manually specify which NLA tracks are to be grouped together into one animation, allowing use of additive tracks.
-
Force animation to be use stepped interpolation.
-
Easily create buttons to run your code from UI, allowing for fast iterations.
- Cannot export data (such as mesh) directly, all data must be assigned to an object in scene in order to be exported.
- Meshes can only be based on blender meshes, no curves, NURBS, etc.
- When merging meshes, UV map, vertex color and shape key names must match.
