About this Importer

This is a quick and dirty importer for Blender 2.8+ intended to be used for painting liveries using the existing model files in 3d texture painting tools like blender itself.

This means at the current stage the importer is able to import most meshes with a UVMap and nothing more!

It's by no means able to fully reconstruct the original model files and not intended to be used like this.

Note that you probably want to move some objects to be able to use these files for 3D texture painting.

Known Limitations and Issues

Many of these could be potentially solved with future updates.

  • Some meshes cannot be imported.
  • No support for UV channel 2 for now.
  • No import of textures or material properties.
  • Some object translations seem not to be at the actual positions.
