This is a minimal example of an Alembic mesh animation compatible with Blender.Each frame is an independent mesh that may not share anything at all with theprevious frame.
sudo apt install cmake build-essential ninja-build \ libopenexr-dev extra-cmake-modules
cmake -H. -Bbuild -G Ninja && cmake --build build
build/alex frames/*
The output file isout.abc
. Note that the version of Blender distributed byapt on Ubuntu 18.04 does not support Alembic. Use the official binary releasefromblender.org to import Alembic files.
The example animation inframes/
is very low-resolution, but still lookspretty good when filtered and rendered in Blender.
