[animation] how to export meshes just once

[Ivan01]

Hi, I'm taking my first steps in animation.
I have noticed that Blendigo first exports the meshes for all the frames, and then it starts to render each frame.
I was wondering if there is a way to export the meshes just once for all the frames rendering.
I had turn off the XM button but when I press Render Anim and select the output, it is turn on again.

Thanks!

Ps. Can any one point out a guide or tutorial for the material editor.

Hi,
I have not yet tried to render animated scenes with Indigo, but if your mesh is animated by an armature, as Indigo is not an animation software I think that there is no other way to export the mesh.

However, if you only have an animated camera I think that the static meshes could be exported only once, but I'm not sure that's the way Indiogo works.

An advice from the indigo team would be better.

Thanks for the reply ROUBAL,
Yes, I should have mention that the animation was only of the camera.
I´m going to look deeper, maybe this has been already mention on another thread.

Exporting animation still seems to have issues. Meshes are exported separately, even when I deselect that option, and the mesh file is overwritten as each frame is exported. This creates a problem for animated meshes like fluids.

indeed. i'll care about it.
