BLEND to glTF converter. Uses custom glTF properties and extensions targeting Panda3D glTF loader.
- Export RenderPipeline materials
- Export Blender-calculated tangents-bitangents
- Export NodePath "tags" from json-encoded Blender text blocks
- Skeletal animations
It's still in experimental state, so some features are still broken:
- Can't export specular maps
- python-blender (2.81+) (Blender as Python module) or Blender's Python
Supported texture maps as BSDF inputs for RenderPipeline materials:
- Base Color
- Specular
- Roughness
- Normal Map
Supported BSDF input values as RenderPipeline material params:
- Metallic (RenderPipeline uses values 0 and 1 only)
- Roughness
- Normal Map Strength (from Normal Map Node)
Some input values could be specified as separate Math Nodes.
You can define object's tags using json-encoded Blender text blocks with the same name as an object.
pview output (notice the "hp" and "type" tags):
GeomNode mesh_ruby (1 geoms: S:(MaterialAttrib TextureAttrib)) [hp type] T:m(scale 10000)
python usage example:
ruby_mesh = self.ruby.find('**/=type=body')
print('hp', ruby_mesh.get_tag('hp'))
outputs:
hp 100
blend2gltf --output x.gltf x.blend
