import vertex color from blender...?

Hey all..


I have painted my meshes with vertex color in blender, now, i´m looking for a way to export it and then import into unity...
is there any way to achieve that?.. (i don´t have a credit card to buy vertex color paint tool from asset, so i´m forced to use the blender itself...)

Thanks.

 

I think the FBX format can export those.

otherwise you can use this.

Saving from Blender as usual is sufficient.

Put Blender in object mode and save the blend file. You can export it from blender as an FBX and then import to Unity. Unity will create a materials file from the vertex colors you don't need to do anything special.

 

I can confirm this works without any special actions in Blender.

Most of my game world is based on vertex colors - I'm using them with a special Unity shader as texture splatting weights. Thanks to Blender's node-based material system, I even get a perfect preview of how it will look in Unity while painting

 

Not quite, without subdiv on, on export and use in Unity, it looks better in Unity.

 

Really? I"ve exported to FBX and see none of my vertex colouring. What are you doing to prep it?

 

Are you using a shader that supports vertex colors? I don't think any of Unity's default shaders support vertex colors- so the vertex colors are probably there, they're just not being used for anything. You'd need to find such a shader or create your own.

 

Use the Vertex color node in shader graph and plug it into the albedo

 

I can't find anyone that specifically tells how I am supposed to get my characters vertex colors into unity, can someone help me?

 

As far as I know they should import automatically when you import an fbx. There's nothing special you have to do to import them.
