[RELEASE] GLideN64 Scene Ripper

[Luctaris]

Thank you for this amazing tool. Any tips for exporting from Blender to programs like Unity or Maya? The textures don't seem to embed when exported as fbx.

I saw that you opened up an issue on the github regarding this too. I'll post my answer here for anyone wondering in the future.

Support for external exporters and file formats is somewhat out of the scope of this project. I can't control how scenes using my tool are imported and interpreted by other software.
This project sets up a custom shader node layout for each material used in the scene.

I couldn't find a suitable file format that can support texture blending, vertex color information, texture mirroring, fog information, etc... which is why I opted to create my own custom .glr file format and associated importer for Blender.

If you want an importer for Maya, 3ds Max, 4D cinema, etc... a custom importer addon/plugin/script will need to be made to interpret the .glr file format for that tool.

If there is enough interest, I might look into creating an addon for Unity/Maya to handle my file format, but I primarily chose to use Blender because it's 100% free and easily accessible.

TL;DR: Sorry... I won't go out of my way to purchase $1000+ software like Maya just so a few people can use my addon.
