Using Collada to IMML converter¶

THIS HAS BEEN SUPERCEDED BY ColladaToIMML

H2. Old notes

Using the ColladaToIMML converter is a very simple process. You can simply drag your Collada (.DAE) file onto the ColladaToImml.exe, and it will do the rest.

Once completed, there will be a new directory created in the location of the Collada file, named with the date, followed by the name of the Collada file.

This directory contains the following folder structure:

> collada
> models
filename.imml
log.txt

The "collada" folder contains the original data stored in the original Collada file, with each object split into its own Collada scene file.
The "models" folder contains the model files referenced in the IMML.
The filename.imml contains all the references to the model files, along with the material properties specified in the original Collada file. It also includes the position and rotation values to align each object to match that of the original Collada scene file.
The log.txt file contains a log of the process.

The generated IMML file uses local referencing, so if sharing the IMML file, the "models" folder must also be included.
