Blender

There are plenty of ways to construct Blender models (*.blend) in a way that they don't work properly on other machines, this text shall give a little guideline on things to keep in mind.

Textures

• The path to the texture must be relative, not absolute, this can be accomplished with the "Relative Path" option in the file dialog when selecting a texture
• Images must not be packed, the texture screen (Shift-F10) has a toggle button for that

Armatures

How to accomplish that, is not yet clear.

Armatures and character models should stay seperate.

Lighting

Since the models are meant to be used in a game, all the lighting is the job of the game engine, not the .blend file. Model files should thus be free of light sources.

Thumbnail Generation

A thumbnail generator for conforming Blender files can be found in trunk/blender-thumbnail/.
