• Bump/Normal Maps
• Bones
• Skins (configurable influences per vertex)

Installation

(Maya 2016 suggested)

Install pymel if necessary – Maya 2015 and newer will already include this for you. If you need to install PyMel manually, you can clone the latest from the LumaPictures/pymel repository.

Copy the scripts and plug-ins folders to the appropriate maya folder, where maya-version is your current version of Maya (eg. 2013-x64).

• Windows: C:\Users\username\Documents\maya\maya-version
• OSX: ~/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/maya-version
• Linux: /usr/autodesk/userconfig/maya/maya-version

After that, you need to activate the plugin. In Maya, open Windows > Settings/Preferences > Plug-in Manager and enable the checkboxes next to threeJsFileTranslator.py.

Usage

Use the regular Export menus within Maya, select Three.js.
