Title: Learn To Mesh
Post by: ThrillexForLife on March 28, 2013, 06:50:14 pm
Hello, Thrilleh here!

I know most if not all of you must be interested in trying to model, right? Let alone help model some meshes for this awesome game!!

So, let's get started, shall we?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'll provide you with these FREE meshing programs, both in my opinion are very good.

Sculptris
http://pixologic.com/sculptris/ (http://pixologic.com/sculptris/)

Blender
www.blender.org/download/get-blender/ (http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/)

Both websites are SAFE to download from I assure you.
They're the sources.

Now, simply download the one you prefer, if you're not sure which one you'd prefer, maybe check out these Tutorial videos and pick which one suits you best? c: (Personally I like Sculptris best)

Good tutorial,
but do you by chance know if Sculptris can export as a .mesh
or do you still need Blender for that part?

Thank you so much for this! This is extremely helpful. I will most certainly be making meshes in the future thanks to you! <3
This is the most helpful thing ever, and Sculptris is so easy and helpful. Oh, the freedom of creating my own meshes. You deserve a +Floof. c:

I just have a question, once you make a mesh, is it possible to get it into the game? like, as an object?
Title: Re: Learn To Mesh
Post by: ThrillexForLife on May 11, 2013, 12:32:06 pm
Yes, of course..Once you make any mesh..You can add it to your map. :3 Hope this answer it.

I'm when you make a mesh do you just press exports or something and if you do where does the mesh export to in the fh files and all its other stuff

Quote from: Kiaz
I know you posted forever ago and probably firgured it out by now... but mesh files are the base for all objects in FH X3
You just go to C:>FeralHeart>media>objects>my_objects and put your .mesh and .material in there. Then go to object maker and bring it into the game X3

Quote from: Thrillex
Haha, seemed like your thread was dying, but I saw it and it gave me a glint of hope that I might be able to make some meshes, so I just wanted to thank you for the trouble of making this <3

Can Sculptris export as a .mesh? ( I have it, just don't want to waste my time on an un-usable mesh)

It has been my dream to create meshes, and I finally can.

How do you export it as a mesh??
Title: Re: Learn To Mesh
Post by: ThaBIue on January 04, 2014, 03:00:54 am
I was looking for a way to export it as mesh and found that both programs(blender and Sculptris will be used to do so) If you have the .mesh format on blender, you can easily convert it. Hope this helps.. If not then I really don't know since I just got into both programs.

The video shows examples on exporting Sculptris (skip to 1:50)
