ResonitePackage

ResonitePackage is an upcoming package format allowing users to share and import pre-setup avatars and objects easily.

Goals

The goals of the ResonitePackage format are to:

• Allow creators to share creations outside of Resonite
  • For example an avatar creator adding a ResonitePackage version of their avatar

Non-Goals

• Compatibility with Unity/Unitypackage
  • Unitypackage is a proprietary format, that we cannot support/emulate
  • Therefore Unity will not support ResonitePackage.
• Compatibility with other VR Platforms
  • ResonitePackage files will not be suppoted by other VR Platforms

Contents

ResonitePackages will include everything needed to re-create an object inside Resonite when re-imported. Including:

• All Assets
  • Images
  • Sounds
  • Meshes
  • Videos
• Slot Hierarchies
  • Including Bones
  • Including all components
  • ProtoFlux

All assets will be included explicitly, as a file within the package.

Variants

You can also optionally, export a ResonitePackage with all asset variants. This will result in a larger file size though.

Naming

The name was chosen as it was the most explicit (following in the steps of the Unity engine having the UnityPackage format), and as a way to advertise the platform.
