FAQ

How do I use this plugin?

Check out the Github Wiki for quick instructions on getting started - https://github.com/Takanu/Capsule/wiki.

What version of Blender does the plugin work with?

The current version supports Blender 3.5, if you need support for older Blender versions then browse the Releases page and find the right one for your version - https://github.com/Takanu/Capsule/releases.

Are there things that Capsule can't currently export?

Theres a few use cases where Capsule may have trouble exporting assets from your scene:

  • Animations that aren't attached to Armature Bones using an Object Origin Point - If you try to do this it will likely fail, keep these to using Scene origin points.

  • Bone Constraints - The "Preserve Armature Constraints" button under the Armature tab in the Export Presets menu can help if you need to export an armature with bone constraints, as it is unlikely to export properly when left. This however is currently an experimental feature, so results may vary.
