[x3d-public] Blender Python for exporting humanoid information

[John Carlson]

ChatGPT says (I’ll have to check accuracy later):

armature = None
for obj in bpy.context.scene.objects:
    if obj.type == 'ARMATURE':
      armature = obj
      break

if armature:
    for bone in armature.pose.bones:
         # Access bone name, location, rotation, and scale
         bone_name = bone.name
         bone_location = bone.location
         bone_rotation = bone.rotation_euler
         bone_scale = bone.scale
         # Do something with this bone information
         print(f"Bone: {bone_name}")
         print(f"Location: {bone_location}")
         print(f"Rotation: {bone_rotation}")
         print(f"Scale: {bone_scale}")

if armature:
    for obj in bpy.context.selected_objects:
           if obj.type == 'MESH':
                 mesh = obj.data
                 for vertex in mesh.vertices:
                       # Access vertex coordinates
                       vertex_coords = vertex.co
                       # Do something with this vertex information
                        print(f"Vertex Coordinates {vertex_coords}")

# Additionally,  getting skin coord information

# Replace 'YourMeshObjectName' with the actual name of your mesh object

mesh_obj = bpy.data.objects['YourMeshObjectName']

vertex_groups = mesh_obj.vertex_groups
for group in vertex_groups: l
    group_name = group.name
    for index, weight in group.weight_paint:
        # 'index' is the vertex index, and 'weight' is the weight value
        print(f"Group: {group_name}, Vertex Index: {index}, Weight:
{weight}")

Seems straightforward, if custom per model.  group_name is probably
analogous to joint name.  Combining scripts would probably be best.

Animations are another step.  I’m not sure how accessible this is because
it refers to selected_objects for one.  Also, one will have to convert
bones to Joints (hmm, look at an import script?)

Sorry, I couldn’t read the Blender documentation or the ChatGPT English.
Just the facts, ma’am.
