Exporting to Alembic Good day ! Today we will introduce you to such an unusual file format as Alembic (.abc). So what exactly is Alembic? Alembic is a computer graphics interchange file format used by professionals for visual effects and animation. Since 2011, the Alembic format has become widespread in animation. Its main purpose is the exchange of geometry (models) between different groups of the same objects. Alembic supports general geometric representations including meshes, subdivision surfaces, parametric curves, NURBS patches, and particles. Alembic does not store a procedural tool dependency graph, but stores baked animation and soft tissue results. Alembic was developed as an open source library by Sony Pictures. What does Alembic do? Bakes complex animated IClone results into a compressed Alembic point cache format for reuse in other 3D programs. For rendering IClone animation in CINEMA 4D, MAYA, 3ds Max and others. Export of IClone objects to compositing tools: Fusion, Nuke, Isotropix and others. Create static meshes of soft cloth physics and export these meshes for 3D printing. Bake soft cloth physics to upload to SketchFab. Benefits of using Alembic First: The FBX format does not accurately convey soft tissue animation, but Alembic does. Second: The Alembic format allows exporting vertex and mesh animation data at the OBJ level. Third: The Alembic format allows you to export animation data for exchange between various 3D programs. Alembic usage concept The concept includes two aspects: animation and texture. You need to separately export animations in .abc format and textures and then merge them together in programs such as CINEMA 4D, MAYA, 3ds Max, and others. The fact is that the Alembic file contains only vertex and mesh animation data, without packaging the necessary textures to ensure the minimum size of itself. What do we do at the beginning?
