Contribute

This add-on is offered as it is and maintaned by @Bujus_Krachus and the community, no support expected.

Contributions in form of bug reports, bug fixes, improvements, new features, etc. are always welcome as I don't have the time to do it all.

For code contributions fork the repository, do your changes and create a Pull-Request to https://projects.blender.org/extensions/io_scene_x3d/src/branch/main. Describe as detailed as possible what this PR does and why it's good to have. Ideally include sample files for testing and demonstrating. Also make sure, that a merge of the PR does not break other features.

Fellow active maintainers are also always very welcome. If you're interested, reach out.
