NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter: Plugin for Blender

The NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter is a plugin for Blender that allows users to export textures and materials from Blender scenes to formats compatible with NVIDIA virtual texturing tools. It streamlines texture baking and exporting workflows.

What is NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter?

The NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter is an add-on for Blender that facilitates exporting textures and materials created in Blender into formats usable by NVIDIA's texture tools and virtual texturing workflow. Specifically, it allows exporting textures into NVIDIA's .nst and .ntx formats which are optimized for virtual texturing applications.

Some key features of the exporter include:

  • Streamlined exporting of image textures from Blender into .nst format
  • Advanced material and texture baking controls for high quality bakes
  • Supports mesh UV layouts and atlasing for optimal virtual texturing
  • Options for controlling texture compression quality and format
  • Integrates with NVIDIA's mdl2ntx tool for converting Blender MDL materials into virtual material .ntx files

By using the NVIDIA Texture Tools Exporter, 3D artists can seamlessly transition textures and materials made in Blender into NVIDIA's ecosystem for virtual texturing and advanced rendering. This improves and accelerates workflows for applications like architecture visualization, product design, and games utilizing NVIDIA technologies.
