It is hard to get models out of Blender into Godot (correctly and without loosing half the work).

Gamedev relevant open-source projects should come together to create a new 3D interchange format. More in the GitHub discussion.

I've submitted this proposal to other open source projects as well:

Can 3D substitution* animation be exported from Blender? This isn't easy to search, though what I could find seems like importing animations in general needs more clicks than expected. Even better would be a workflow with greasepencil and geometry nodes (though searching w/Godot leads to a paid tool), especially if that can also be used for vertex colors.

I have my doubts here as the first thing I tried (a custom shader with a 2nd vertex color map hooked up to glow) didn't work. Though I'm not sure if that was an issue with gltf, Blender, Godot, how I exported it, or something else.

*= Switching visibility to another model rather than using deformation or texturing. If this does not export easily, I guess it'd be easy enough to manually do with Godot's animation player so long as there aren't too many frames/animations/states.
