This plugin allows you to import gltf/glb models as MeshLibrary, which saves a lot of time compared to manual importing.
you can simply drag and drop gltf/glb files into the editor, select "GLTF To MeshLibrary" in the import settings, and it will automatically import your gltf/glb as a MeshLibrary. This allows you to see instant changes after any modification of the gltf file.
In my case, I used models made with Blockbench, exported as gltf, and imported into Godot with this plugin, and it seems to work fine as I expected. I am using Godot 4.3.
If you encounter any problems, or if you have any suggestions, please let me know in the Issues.
Different from godot's default behavior, you need to make sure models you want to import are in the first level. things in sublevels would be imported as a part of the parent object.
here's an example:
| Option | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| generate_collision_shape_by_mesh | generate collision shape by its model, rather than "-col" tagged meshs. | false |
| generate_preview | whether to generate preview for MeshLibrary. | true |
| model_offset | You can adjust model offset via this parameter. | Vector3.ZERO |
| sort_by_name | Sort Items in MeshLibrary. Preventing unexpected order. | true |
Now you can import Items with flags. Currently there're 2 kinds of flags available:
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
--collision or -col |
whether to import this object as collision shape or not. false by default. |
--noimp |
whether to import this object or not. false by default. |
Here's an example:
You can configure collision by adding meshes that indicates the collision shape of the item, and add --collision flag to the item.

re-importing GLTF with opened scene in Editor with GridMap node which binds the imported gltf, would raise
"servers/rendering/renderer_rd/storage_rd/mesh_storage.cpp:632 - Parameter "mesh" is null.". -
for some reason, the editor might raise annoying "Attempted to call reimport_files() recursively, this is not allowed." error while importing mesh as MeshLibrary.
Thankfully this issue seems not influencing the game, but it's still annoying.Do you got any solutions? I need you help on this :(
let me know more problems you encountered in issues.
