[Bf-committers] Collada status

[Dalai Felinto]

Hi,

recently I used Blender Collada exporter to generate content for flash 3D.
The script looks fine, the only problem is that the final file looks
bigger then the necessary.
(I tried to import some collada samples and export it and the final
file Blender-generated was much bigger.

Anyways, if you need some help for testing, please let me know.

My test result is here (take a little time to load the texture ...):
