The Blender Plug-in communicates with the HEAT motion library through the HEAT Bridge. If you haven't downloaded and installed the HEAT Bridge please .
Open the HEAT Bridge on your PC.
Log into the HEAT Bridge with the 'Sign In' button () in the upper right hand corner.
The HEAT Bridge will automatically link your HEAT account to blender with your personal API key. Once the Bridge is connected you will see the connection indicator in the lower left corner of the bridge turn from disconnected () to connected ().
Ensure that 'Blender' is selected in the program selection drop-down () in the lower left hand corner of the bridge.
You are now ready to import animations to your Blender project.
In the HEAT Bridge locate an animation that you would like to pull into your scene and click it.
The animation card will expand to show a full size 3D viewport of the animation with it's title, description, and tags.
A new T69H model will appear in your scene and the animation will quickly load onto the model.
Next we will take a more in depth look at everything the HEAT Blender plug-in can do.
in the lower right hand corner select the 'Export to New T69H Model' button ().
Click the 'Import' button () in the lower right hand corner of the bridge to send the animation from the HEAT Bridge to your Blender scene.
It is important that at this point you make sure you are 'Exporting to New T69H Model' () when choosing an animation. If attempting to apply the animation with the 'Export to Selected' () option chosen without having anything in your scene the animation import will fail.
