Technical Details

Import Workflow:

The workflow, based on Datasmith, is identical to importing *.udatasmith files or CAD files. You will find an additional import format (*.TM) added to the list of files supported by Datasmith. If you are not familiar with how Datasmith works, consult this documentation.


Installation, Usage and Roadmap

You will need to install two (2) plugins to be able to successfully import Twinmotion files in Unreal:

  1. Datasmith Twinmotion Importer Plugin: Plugin handling file import through the existing Datasmith and Dataprep workflows.
  2. Twinmotion Content for Unreal Engine: Content library reflecting the content shipping with Twinmotion including Master Materials, Assets etc.


Please refer to this document for a complete description install and use, as well as what is expected to work, known issues and roadmap.
