Material Library

Is there a way to save a material library as an Ogre .material file? We are creating several scenes and they will have a lot of materials in common so we would like to create a material library that contains all of the "generic" materials and convert that into a single .material file. Then we can export the materials that are specific to the scene with the scene. Is there any capability for this?

Probably you can have an "global material" scene, where you have all global materials assigned to simple objects, then you export with "Export Materials" as the only selected option to create the .material file only

In this way you can create and modify your material library when needed, and this file can be used with other exported scenes that have objects that reference those materials
