As I can't find a proper place to put this on Blender, I uploaded this
proposal to our proposals repo. Feel free to copy it over to wherever
necessary.
This proposal describes an extremely minimal change that can be done to
Blender to hugely improve game engine export support. This means you only
We can probably pull request this functionality into Blender ourselves, or
at least generate a detailed proposal but for this I would like to see if
Blender contributors can agree that this is something wanted and how it
would be wanted.

Hi Everyone!
Most exporters are working fantastic nowadays in Blender, so on the
Godot Engine side, we are trying to figure how better to improve our
experience to users when going back and forth between Blender and Godot.
So, this proposal consists on a very (pre-discussed) list of topics

Hi guys, lead Godot dev here.
I wanted to discuss with you a problem we are often having that I am not
certain how it can be solved entirely from our side, I add a proposal for
this, but if you guys have a better recommendation, I'm very open to any
ideas.
Basically, Godot will import scenes (GLT

Hi Campbell, it is still maintained, and the latest version is in the
github repo linked above.
Godot community often contributes improvements to it, but i don't think
having duplicated code is a good idea.
If Blender includes it officially in the stable release, I'll remove it
from Godot repo and

Game engines such as Unity or Unreal would happily support Collada if
Blender exports it properly.
Collada exporter is here:
https://github.com/godotengine/godot/tree/master/tools/export/blender25/io_scene_dae
The only limitation it has, which I believe could be fixed quite easily but
should not be a blocker, is that to export skeletons, you have to make the
mesh a child of the skeleton.
This
Yeah, I had hope for a bit, then been told current broken support for
Collada would be fixed. Finally, it was not fixed.
I've been trying to help Blender support Collada properly for 10 years, did
all the work, proposed it. Still maintain in on my own. It works
fantastically well, it's been tested

How about some self-criticism from Blender instead of blaming Autodesk?
If you guys really had cared about open standards and getting along well
with game engines, you would have done the following:
Blender support for Collada is bad because no one wants to work on it. The
format itself is not at fault.

The whole industry is moving to physically based rendering, and suddendly
tools like Substance Painter, Marmoset, Unreal Engine 4, etc. boomed
Having worked with it, it is safe to say that the current diffuse/specular
model is obsolete.
So my question is, are there any plans for Blender to move
Well, someone made an exporter and is keeping it up to date.. Which is not
so much the case with Collada..

You seem to be somehow expecting a magic bullet. You can't write an
exporter thinking that you will please every importer out there, specially
for a format as ambiguous as Collada. The best you can do is to export a
correct file and then work with those who have importers to make sure

If it makes you feel happier, I can manage to get screenshots of data

Godot site is still under construction, but I've decided to publish my

Hi Guys!
Saw Ton's twit about OpenGEX:

exporter. In fact I approached the author about rewriting my Collada

Collada python export plugin for Blender (in the tools/export directory of
Github), but we don't keep it up to date with new versions so it may not
currently work. Also I'm not sure if it's done the right way, so help with
that would be very appreciated.

I'm sorry I couldn't commit my python export plugin yet, I'm on a trip and

The problem with importing/exporting of Collada and skeletons is not really
that it doesn't match the internal representation.
Animating 3D objects in a 3D Animation package is always done through euler
angles, local or global, and that is easy to export
seamlessly in Collada.
But skeleton based mo

try to port collada.h/collada.cpp,
later use the data (using scene_format_collada.* as reference) to import it

The word crappy is completely subjective. In this case, what matters is:
1) Whether something works or not. It may have bugs and need a little more
work in the export options
ng, and save artist time
from having to reimplement materials all over again when importing. I'm not
sure how well can OC do this. Exporting custom properties is also really
useful.
