Feature Request: Exporting animated ABC or FBX

Hey community!

Second post today, hope I´m not spamming.

In the case that I didn´t just miss the function, it would be really nice to have a option to export the animated pipeline in POP space into a FBX or ABC to be able to have it “baked” into the model - I´m hoping to have less GPU power needed if it´s just loaded as an animation in POP space.

Correct me if my thinking is wrong. :slight_smile:

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback! We have it on our list to have more export options for POPs

Currently as a workaround if your geo has a fixed number of point you could probably bake the animation to an EXR sequence (with POP to TOP) and play it back with Texture Lookup POP

Hey,

thanks for your time to answer the question! Will try that method out. :slight_smile:

I love this!! I was doing this with shaders!! with lookup Texture is like drinking water. I am trying to find a way to send 32bit spout from omniverse to TD, so to have physiX in TD (omniverse as external engine). @vincentDev may i kindly ask you to add USD to your list of export option, to sop as well ?

Hey man don’t know if you’ve already taken it into account but if you can encode the spout from omniverse like the pack TOP does you could always import a 8bit texture and unpack it into a 32bit equivalent once you’re in TD again.
