BeamNG glTF Sequence Importer

Blender add-on for importing glTF sequences from BeamNG.drive.

This addon is intended for use with my BeamNG.drive mod glTF Sequence Exporter.

Installation

This add-on is only supported for Blender 4.2.

Download the latest release and drag and drop the .zip file into Blender to install. You can also install the .zip file through the Blender preferences via "Get Extensions -> Install from Disk..." or "Add-ons -> Install from Disk...".

Usage

In the Blender menu choose File > Import > BeamNG glTF Sequence.

Select one of your sequence files and choose a name for the sequence. It can take a while to finish importing long sequences and Blender may freeze during the process. You can enable Blender's system console with "Window -> Toggle System Console" before importing to keep an eye on the progress if it freezes.

The imported frames are stored in a collection and an object is created to instance the current frame using a Geometry Nodes modifier.

Limitations

The materials will usually need some cleanup as they aren't imported exactly how they appear in-game, especially for glass and mirrors.

There may be some z-fighting on number plates because they are modeled as two planes. You can fix this with backface culling or by editing the geometry.
