My code can serve as an example for generating bone hierarchies. The work should be done in the actual import plugin instead, but I was just seeing what I could do. My post-processing script "almost" gets the rotation right, but needs work. To make it use bones, the relative offset of the child needs to be the tail (not the head like in the empties it generates currently). VirtualBrightPlayz almost imports animations (!)-help out there if you can.

If you're interested in helping figure out animation export/import, you can visit the source repository and/or the issue tracker.

I am attempting to use as much of Blender's functions to manipulate matrices as possible to make the code easier to understand at a glance. Animations without child bones should work, as well as UV textures. Specifically, I have not yet figured out the transformations needed to make child bones animate properly in Minetest. Unfortunately, I am not a game developer, I'm just familiar with Python, so animation export/import is incomplete/buggy.

The Blitz3D format was hard to find documentation for, so I collected what I could find and put it in the source repository.

mobs) and modern Blender plugins for the other animated mesh file formats don't seem to exist (DirectX, MD2)

While Minetest devs work on supporting newer mesh formats, Blitz3D seems to be the main format used for animated meshes (e.g.

Unsatisfied with the code quality in the older plugins and wanted something easier to maintain for future Blender versions and easier to understand for plugin developers.

I wrote this from scratch, with inspiration from specific parts of the older Blender plugins, for a number of reasons: It will be installed under the Testing tab/support level.

You can download the addon ZIP file from here to install into Blender. I've started a Blender 2.93 LTS plugin to export and import Blitz3D files because existing plugins seem to only work on older Blender versions.
