gltf VS godot-builds-ci

This is a very ugly and confusing site which claims to be an overview of the format. I balked after trying in vain to parse it for two minutes. So off to the wiki.

Rustracer: a PBR glTF 2.0 renderer based on Vulkan ray-tracing, written in Rust.

I've found glTF ( https://www.khronos.org/gltf/ ) to be quite simple. The entire format is encompassed in something like a dozen entity types. Nice visual overview here:

Do yourself a favor and learn about making glFT files. That's the format they're using internally. One file, with everything self contained plus more advanced shader features than OBJ.

Looks like a GLTF file. https://www.khronos.org/gltf/

There are no standard 3d formats at the moment that you can use and view in VR with the same ease as you could a png/jpeg on a desktop, VR is still very much based around full apps with their own proprietary formats. But glTF/glb at least can be imported with reasonable ease into many different places, e.g. both the WMR and Oculus home environments have importer for them.

- Exporting as .obj might be a bit of a poor/outdated choice, please check gltf

hmm. never heard of GLTF. A quick look on their site shows max/maya/houdini/blender/C4D so thats good. It seems to be roylty free. Is it open source? Is that something I should be looking for?

Thank you for the response. The subreddit /glTF is basically dead because no one can post without moderator approval and the moderator has been inactive for the past 3 years. Can you please let me know what the "other reasons" are why you will not approve my request? I work for The Khronos Group who created and maintains glTF. Please see www.khronos.org/gltf for more information. Thank you for your reconsideration.

Check out Hugo’s nightly builds: https://hugo.pro/projects/godot-builds/

I found a website that posts the compiled current build for you...you just have to download and run! :O

It's not in 4.0.alpha10, but you can build the master branch from source or download a nightly build. It will be in the next alpha :)

If you find yourself waiting for the bi-weekly alpha builds, you can just update early by grabbing one of Calinou's daily builds, or alternatively you can compile a build yourself.

I don't recommend that because it's still in alpha and not ready for use in production. But if you do want to get 4.0, you can get official alpha 2 here or daily builds here or here.

You can also download the unofficial daily builds from hugo.pro.

Glad it fixed things! For what it's worth, Godot 4.0 seems to resolve this issue. You can get nightly downloads here which also have export templates available.

If you're willing to deal with it, you can download the 4.0 nightlies from here.

Godot 3.4 is already out and an official alpha for Godot 4.0 will be released in the coming month, but you can already try it here it may still be quite buggy as the 4.0 add a lot of new stuff, but they are finally focusing on bug fixing more to release it than adding new things.
