Automate game asset processing and bundling by using a plugin-based Python pipeline that scans directories, fingerprints content hashes, and applies custom processing to textures, meshes, and animations. It outputs bundled packages ready for game integration.

Incremental asset processing uses content fingerprinting via hashes to identify changed files. By comparing hashes, the pipeline only reprocesses modified textures or meshes, skipping unchanged assets to save build time and compute resources.

Build custom pipeline plugins by extending the Python library's plugin architecture to handle specific asset types like textures, meshes, and animations. You configure processing rules and integrate them through the pipeline configuration to transform and package assets.

You need a Python environment with a pyproject-defined package and a pipeline configuration file to run the forge-pipeline CLI. These prerequisites drive plugin execution, asset scanning, and output bundling.

Manage game asset ingestion and transformation by configuring a Python pipeline that automatically discovers assets, applies processing plugins for format conversion, and bundles the transformed outputs into reusable packages via CLI control.

Debug and test custom asset pipeline plugins by extending the Python library with new configurations and running targeted pipeline executions. This allows you to verify asset transformation logic and plugin behavior before generating bundled outputs.
