glTF 0.8 to 1.0 Guide

The following major changes were made between glTF 0.8 and 1.0:

• material and technique were simplified, #419
  • technique.pass.details was removed. Use the KHR_materials_common extension, #424
• node.rotation is now a unit quaternion with the order (x, y, z, w), #144
  • When node.rotation is targeted for animation, spherical linear interpolation (slerp) should be used, #156
• node.instanceSkin was removed. Its properties are now directly on node, #255
• mesh.primitive.primitive was renamed to mesh.primitive.mode, #341
• mesh.primitive.indices is now optional, #60
• technique.parameter.source was renamed to technique.parameter.node (node was in 0.8 schema, but not the converter), #239
• allExtensions was renamed to extensionsUsed, #404
• asset.profile was changed from a string to an object with api and version string properties, #325
• The CESIUM_binary_glTF extension was replaced with KHR_binary_glTF, #400 and #413
