• Collada importing from Blender via custom python export script (triggers Blender's collada loader + some addons for lights and physics) supporting:
  • Mesh, lights, rigid body physics
  • Mesh movement and skeletal animation
  • Light movement animation
  • Diffuse, normal, specular, parallax, displacement mapping. Textures are imported as bindless GL textures
• Bullet Physics integration for rigid bodies (BulletSharp)
• Deferred Rendering pipeline
• Spot, point and directional soft shadows with variable penumbra (VSM + mipmaps + pcss style stuff)
• HDR with adaptive exposure
• Lens effects like bloom and lens flare
• Depth of Field with Bokeh
• Camera and object motion blur
• Precomputed Atmospheric Scattering
• Voxel based global illumination
• ..and maybe some other things, I don't know :)

• WASD / CTRL / Space = Movement
• F = Flashlight
• Z = Reel in picked object
• X = Throw picked object
• R = Reset Scene

• Tab = No Clip
• CAPS = Mouse Lock

• Left Click = Pick / move physical object / Move camera when mouse unlocked
• Right Click = Zoom camera / Poke the Goat!
• MIddle Click = Take Screenshot

Blender meshes must have the following to work with Kailash:

• UV Mapping / Texture Coordinates
• At least 1 material

If you are starting from a fresh blend, make sure to set all paths to relative: File > External Data > Make all paths relative

1. Create your scene
2. Save the blend in KailashEngine2/KailashEngine/Resources/Blender/ (important for relative paths)
3. Open up a Text Editor panel
4. Open the file KailashEngine2/KailashEngine/Resources/Blender/Scripts/export_collada.py
5. Hover the mouse over the Text Editor panel and hit Alt + P (this will run the script)

The script will create 3 files in KailashEngine2/KailashEngine/Resources/Scene/<blend_file_name>/

Blender's Collada exporter misses a lot of things. Below are some workarounds I've used to get things to export

Textures

Set the following texture influences for effect in Kailash

• Parallax Mapping: Diffuse > Intensity
• Displacement Mapping: Shading > Ambient

1. Put the blend's filename (without extension) in KailashEngine.Client.Scene Method: load
2. Recompile and Run
