Using the GLTF / GLB Version

GLTF/GLB is useful for compatible real-time and interactive workflows.

When importing the GLTF/GLB version into another application, check:

• Material assignments
• Texture paths
• Normal map interpretation
• Scale
• Lighting

Different applications can interpret PBR materials slightly differently, so minor material adjustments may be necessary.

Using the FBX Version

The FBX version can be used when importing the model into compatible 3D applications.

Depending on the target application, materials may need to be reassigned or adjusted after import.

For the most complete Blender experience, use the native .blend file.

PBR Color Space Reference

Correct color-space settings are important for getting predictable PBR results.
