About Drag[en]gine Import/Export

Drag[en]gine Import/Export is a Blender add-on from DragonDreams that produces resource files for use with the Drag[en]gine Game Engine. It exports models (*.demodel), rigs (*.derig), animations (*.deanim), navigation spaces (*.denavspace) and occlusion meshes (*.deoccmesh), and can import rig (*.derig) and animation (*.deanim) files back into Blender. The add-on provides panels labeled with “Drag[en]gine” that expose engine‑specific properties during export and includes helper tools to speed up common workflow steps. It is compatible with Blender 4.2 LTS and newer, distributed under GPL‑v3 or later, and requests file permissions for import and export operations. Version 1.29.1 removed commented‑out code that caused import issues on Blender 5 and later.
