- Support for vertex float maps
Used for cloth attributes. To add a map, use the + button in the Float Maps section of the Source Engine Exportables pane. Optionally, the output range can be rescaled with the min and max settings. Paint the map using the weight paint tool.
- Bone axis reorientation
Source 2 expects the X axis of bones to point toward the next bone in a chain, enabling the Rotate Bone X-axis forward option under Source Engine Export will rotate all bones on export, so that the X-axis will face the original Y-axis.
- Model scaling
Scales the entire model on export. Located under Source Engine Export. A value of approximately 39 will scale models from metric to inches.
- Forward parity
Located under Source Engine Export. DMX option that determines which axis will map to forward (positive X-axis) when imported to the engine.
- Export direct flex keyframes
Exports flex animations directly to DMX without binding them to bones. Located under Source Engine Export. To use, assign an action with animated shape keys both to the mesh and the armature. Currently the exporter uses the length of the skeletal animation keyframes in the action, so place bone keyframes at both the start and end of the animation. This likely does not support NLA or any advanced flex features, and does not currently filter out unused shape keys.
