| 17 | 1 | kaetemi | h2. shape |
| 18 | 1 | kaetemi | |
| 19 | 1 | kaetemi | Exports: |
| 20 | 1 | kaetemi | * All shape nodes with lod (shape_with_coarse_mesh/nodename.shape) |
| 21 | 1 | kaetemi | * All shape nodes without lod (shape_not_optimized/nodename.shape) |
| 22 | 1 | kaetemi | * Animations per shape if any (shape_anim/nodename.anim) |
| 23 | 7 | kaetemi | * Generates lightmaps (LM) if required per shape per lightgroup (shape_lightmap_not_optimized/filename_nodename_lightgroupid.tga & filename_nodename.txt (log)) |
| 24 | 7 | kaetemi | ** We might want to modify this to export the data required for a lightmap generation tool only to a data file, and run a lightmap generation tool outside of the 3d export process, that uses the exported shape and light information from the data file. See calc_lm*.* files under nel_mesh_lib. |
