BRIAGE is a Blender Add-on which allows its users to export animations and meshes into a DTG Train Simulator 20XX compatible format.
Since November 2015, I work on Dom107's exporter to extend its features :
-
- Blender Interfaces
- UI panel for materials and textures (properties>material)
- UI panel for IGS export options (properties>scene)
- UI panel for IA export options (properties>scene)
- UI pop-ups about common export mistakes (+prints short logs to Blender system console)
- UI panel to select TS directory (user prefs>addons)
- All options packed into *.blend file: no more IGS_mod_file!
- Materials features
- Shader list imported dynamically from TS
- Non-listed shaders may be used (ex: TrainBump.fx)
- Comment driven behaviors options available
- "UV scroll" and ViewFacing options available
- Textures features
- Texture paths can be taken directly from Blender image path
- Texture paths can be taken directly from Blender image path
- Export features
- Exports vertex weights and armatures (IGS and IA)
- Exports vertex colors
- Exports object color
- Exports Snap-points
- Exports Blender instances
- Multiple animation hierarchies supported on export
- Textures can now be placed also in parent and sibling directories
- Texts, curves, meta and surfaces are automatically converted on export if they have 1 material
- Number of texture slots checked for common shaders
- Saved per scene (allows multiple IGS options to be stored in one *.blend; useful when exporting objects with skinned parts!...)
- Trim unused animation range on export
- Import features
- Import IGS and IA files made with 3DSMax, 3DC or Blender
- Missing IA objects/bones or added automatically on import
- Blender Interfaces
BRIAGE for Blender 3.5+ and 2.79.7 is even faster than everything before! it is even faster than its original implementation or his Max counterpart!
A detailed manual is included in pdf format within the downloaded archives in English. You may even send your translation to the current maintainer for inclusion in main distribution!
If you need some help or have suggestions, join BRIAGE Discord Server! where you can also find newer beta versions!
Please bear in mind that latest 2.79.7 version is only compatible with Blender 2.79.7, not with 2.79b! You can find the latest 2.79 Blender here.
