Exporting 3D scenes
===================
Overview
--------
2024-03-16 20:56:52 +01:00
In Pandemonium it is possible to export 3D scenes as a glTF 2.0 file. You can
2023-01-12 19:43:03 +01:00
export as a glTF binary (`.glb` file) or glTF embedded with textures
2024-03-16 20:56:52 +01:00
(`gltf` + `.bin` + textures). This allows you to create scenes in Pandemonium,
such as a CSG mesh blockout for a level, export it to clean it up in a
2024-03-16 20:56:52 +01:00
program such as Blender, and then bring it back into Pandemonium.

Note:

Only Blender 2.83 and newer can import glTF files exported by Pandemonium.
To export a scene in the editor go to **Project > Tools > Export GLTF...**

Limitations
-----------
There are several limitations with glTF export.
* No support for exporting particles since their implementation varies across engines.
* ShaderMaterials cannot be exported.
* No support for exporting 2D scenes.

* Only supported in editor builds (`tools=yes`).
