Export GLTF from Unreal

Export GLTF from Unreal

  1. Go to Edit > Plugins and search for GLTF. Enable the GLTF Exporter Plugin. You may need to restart Unreal.

  2. Select any actor in your scene, go to File > Export Selected and select .glb for export.

  3. Select 1024x 1024 for Default Material Bake Size. This will automatically bake the materials of your actor into new textures that are ready for GLTF. Keep Mesh Bake to Simple for quicker export, although textures may appear less detailed.

  4. Select JPEG for Texture Image Format. Setting the Texture Level to 85 will add some compression to the JPEG and keep file size down.

  5. Click Export. Then drag and drop your GLB onto Foveate and it will be automatically compressed and optimized for you.
