Model in-game

How to use

1. Open Blender.

2. Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Add-ons.

3. Click Install from Disk.

4. Select the script.

Changing vertex color

Vib-IO stores color using Blender vertex groups.
Each color is represented by a vertex group named with a 6-digit RGB hex value, for example:

• #ff0000

• #00ff00

• #0000ff

• #00ffff

• #ff00ff

• #ffff00

• #ffffff

• #000000

To change the color of a line:

1. Select the imported object.
2. Go to Object Data Properties.
3. Open the Vertex Groups panel.
4. Find the vertex group with the color you want to edit (By default, the plugin automatically makes vertex groups with the original colors. You can create more if needed).
5. Select your edges and assign them to your vertex group. Make sure to remove them from other vertex groups.

When exporting, Vib-IO checks which vertex group an edge belongs to and writes that into the .TMD file, but edges without a vertex group assigned to them will export as white.
