Game engine live link · since Angelo 1.0.7
Model in Angelo. Watch it land in Godot.
Choose Edit in Angelo on a model in your Godot project, and every change you or the agent make shows in the Godot editor as you work. Unity and Unreal Engine take it when you save.
Three engines. One link.
The link works on the asset, not on one object in a level, so every placed copy updates. Your scene is never changed.
- Live as you work
Godot
Every change, live on every copy of the asset in the open scene.
- Edits

- Tested with

Set it up once. Then just Edit in Angelo.
Angelo puts its plugin into your project; you switch it on in the engine, because Angelo never edits your project settings.

Angelo noticed
Unity is open
When Godot, Unity or the Unreal Editor is running, Angelo offers the link once per engine. Nothing connects unless you click.
Fits your pipeline, not the other way round.
- Your import settingsSaving writes the model file and the engine re-imports it with your settings. Collisions, LODs and scripts come along.
- Waits for a still sceneLive updates hold while you drag, paint a stroke or play the animation, and in Edit Mode until you leave it.
- The agent's edits tooAsk for a change and it lands in the engine like your own. "Link my Unity project" sets it up from the chat.
- Stays on your computerThe link runs on this machine only, one asset at a time, and edits go one way: Angelo to the engine.
Shipping to the web? Same idea, in a browser.
Live browser preview shows your scene as Three.js draws it, updated after every change. Web export writes a compressed .glb for Three.js, checked against its size budget.
Questions, answered.
No. Godot (and Unreal Engine with the live plugin) shows the change on the asset's placed copies without touching the scene; saving updates the asset file, which the engine re-imports.
Godot: .blend and .glb. Unreal Engine: Mesh assets imported from .glb. Unity: .blend, .glb and .fbx. Anything else is refused with the reason.
Saving updates the asset in every case. To see edits in the open level before you save, add the Angelo Link Live plugin: it comes as source you build for your Unreal version, and its preview shows shapes and base colours; textures arrive with the re-import.
No. Angelo and the engine talk on this computer only.
