Unreal Prepper - Blender Add-on
Blender to Unreal Exporter Add-on
Exporting from Blender to Unreal Engine can be tricky due to unit mismatches (meters vs. centimeters) and FBX import quirks, causing issues like oversized models or broken animations. This add-on by Imphenzia simplifies the process, making your workflow smoother.
- One-Click Scale Fix: "To Unreal Scale" button adjusts armature and mesh scales, scene units, clipping planes, and animation keys to match Unreal’s centimeter-based system. "From Unreal Scale" reverts changes if needed.
- FBX Export Helpers: Automatically applies geometry settings (Edge, Tangent Space, Triangulate) for Imphenzia PixPal palette compatibility, ideal for automatic smoothing and sharpness.
- Animation Fixes: Converts single-frame pose animations to two-frame for Unreal compatibility.
- Bone Renaming Tool: Renames bones (e.g., Root to Pelvis) and updates all animations to prevent breakage.
- Armature Naming Solution: Renames armatures to control root bone creation in Unreal, ensuring compatibility with Unreal’s skeleton system.
This free add-on saves time and reduces errors for Blender-to-Unreal pipelines. Use with caution and back up files. Check Imphenzia’s YouTube for setup tips!
