Help with converting .obj to .mesh OGRE IS NOT WORKING.
« on: January 06, 2018, 07:53:31 am »
I wish there was a way to simply export a thing I made in Blender to .mesh with out all this other stuff. Someone I met told me about something called DeleD but when I try searching it I get no results from google and what i do get is no where near what I wanted. Please help, is there any other way to convert .obj files to .mesh or must i use this stupid Ogre stuff, because ogre is not working anyways is this really the only thing I can use to make a mesh for feral heart? Please help I am sick and tired of all this non-sense when i just want to make a house or something for feralheart to use in my maps and share with others so they can also use it.

lol ok try this bad of tricks, i don't think it even has to be on drive C. From memory i just chucked a mesh exported at the command line via drag & drop, came out as XML, threw it at it again, came out as .mesh, job job, worked a treat.

They might have an old thing, one example is a favourite bowl or dish, it's broken, pieces are missing, why fix it?  With gold and pieces from other dishes?

I am no coder, it would be helpful to know just what I have to do to make this do what I want it to do... only code I know how to do is making material files for already made meshes...

Drag the file onto the Ogre converter while it's closed(Drop the file right on top of the converter's icon), the converter will convert any file that's dropped onto the icon.

My presets.

Good things take time, so I'll take an eternity and create something so good that the human brain can't handle the sheer goodness of it.

Hi there! Bloo has written out a lovely tutorial on how to convert things using DelEd. Its very easy and no coding is required! I use this method myself and it takes only a few minutes to convert things.

Thank you, but I am having trouble with things i export from blender, DeleD can't seem to export it in mesh form even though I have the OBJ importer and the Multiverse Exporter that supports .mesh conversion.

When you export from blender, are you exporting in a .blend format or a .obj format? Because Deled should work smoothly if you have an .obj file to convert. I wouldn't use the Multiverse Exporter since it only works for static meshes...instead I would use the ogre exporter plugin on Deled as its specific to .obj ---> .mesh. The Ogre Exporter is also specific in that it will give you everything you need to put the mesh into an Ogre specific game, such as Feral Heart.

I actually tried both, first i tried the .obj format which is what would of been the format I would use, but upon trying to export it as .mesh DeleD said "Could not export Computer/User/Destination/Object Name" something like that. Sometimes the mesh I made would not even open in DeleD giving me an error message saying it failed to import something like that.

Did you follow the tutorial that I provided before? If you follow that everything should work smoothly.  You have to have .obj importer installed in order to open the .obj in Deled.
