It will be one of the topics of Tuesday's call for us to collaboratively set priorities for developments like this.<br>
<br>
My personal goal and criterion is that whatever work I do on this has payoff of people generating X3D content that other people can look at. For that we need to determine which shortcomings of the current X3D exporter are real road blocks. I am not much motivated by checking off lists of implemented nodes.<br>

> Would you like to choose between a hierarchy of Transforms vs. no Transforms when importing X3D files in Blender? I’ve got some X3D that works one way and others that work the other way. It’s know it’s confusing. It’s kind of dependent on whether there’s HAnim nodes or not. I know I should treat some HAnim like Transforms, but now, I’m not sure. I’m working on a pull request.<br>
