Intel GPA squish calculator

Trying to export your character from Intel GPA? Don't want to bother with manually unsquishing your character model? Use this.

No, there's no validation on any of the inputs — but as long as you don't enter any nonsense deliberately, things shouldn't break.

What is this?

Landmark source geometry

No file selected

Drop an .obj file here

or click Select OBJ file

Output geometry

[i]

LPT: You don’t need to add each file separately.

You can drag both of them into either zone, and the app will figure out the rest.

Cool.

You can import your character into Blender.

Manual adjustment

Export your character from intel GPA, launch Blender, and import your character.

Scale your character along X and Y by the following amounts in order to undo the squish:

Blender shortcut

Convert and save

Alternatively, you can fix scaling on your model on this page and save the result.

Remove landmark from output geometry

Removes landmark from exported output.

Mirror Z axis

Does your character appear mirrored? Check this.

Flip normals

Generally trust the default — but if your character is more red than orange, then this checkbox should be ticked.

Split by loose parts

This saves you 2 clicks in Blender when you start fixing your meshes.

Fill holes

This saves you few hours in Blender when you start fixing your meshes. (The correct jargon term is "edge loops" btw, i think)

Resize your character

Also moves feet to origin.

Approximate height of model (units/mm):

Height is calculated in the simplest, most naive way: by looking at the difference by the highest and the lowest vertex in the scene. Landmark is NOT included in the calculation.

Note: auto-conversion happens based on some assumptions, which may not be correct. If you don't get the result you expected, go back to Intel GPA/Frame Analyzer and:

Select ONLY your landmark in the scene
Export your landmark from 'output' section
Drag your landmark that you exported from 'INPUT' section into 'source geometry' box
Drag your landmark that you exported from 'OUTPUT' section into 'output geometry' box
Drag your character (or whatever you're extracting from your game) into Blender and manually scale the model the way this page tells you to.

Hello there.
