Chicken is a Python script that allows scenes made in Blender to be exported to Panda3D's Egg format quickly and easily. It supports static and Armature animated mesh objects, preserving hierarchy, UV coordinates, vertex colors, basic materials, diffuse and alpha textures, and other Panda3D specific attributes, such as tags and object types. Automatic invocation of Panda3D tools such as pview, egg2bam and egg-optchar is also provided.
Among Chicken's more advanced features are a Background export mode, and Motion Extraction which aids artists in making characters displace within Panda just as they did in their animations inside Blender.
