Collada Import About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. Collada Import // Archive: Tech Forum 1  |   Order by default Post by Asem // Jun 18, 2007, 8:43am Asem Total Posts: 255 I was wondering if anyone had problems importing a rigged mesh into blender as I have found that blender's collada version is 1.4 and Caligari's is 1.4.1? I can import the geometry of one mesh at a time but can't import a rigged mesh. I even went and tried to fix some of the python code but I don't know blender's api (just switched out deprecated functions in hopes that it would fix it but no). Is the spec for the collada formats that much of a difference?

Apparently it's slated for an upcoming release. Link (http://colladablender.illusoft.com/progress.html).

Apparently they can at least according to when you download the latest releases and check the "changelog.txt" but I not sure as of yet need to test it out hopefully it does work which if it does the site needs to be updated but I could be wrong since I saw something in there about the summer of code in which it wouldn't be added until the end of summer. hope it works.

If you can figure out a way to get this to work it would be awesome.:) Post by felixsg // Jun 22, 2007, 1:01am felixsg Total Posts: 28 I think caligari need to make .fbx support, the collada is a very old format and very incompatible because all the programs use diferent version not compatibles between. The collada export probably need a option for export in old formats or be compatible with the fbx converter of autodesk
