Hey! I got blender to make meshes and I just need an link to the Ogre exporter.Also, when you give me the Ogre exporter please make a tutorial of where to place the files from the Ogre exporter, how to use it etc. Please. Thanks and i hope you will help me :D
-
Bah. I have blender also, but I don't understand how python and the OGRE export work together in the NEWSET version of Blender. :33 If someone could help meh with that, I would give you KARMA! :3 Or a preset, map, marking, or object {Made in blender xD}
-
I don't use blender, so i can't help right now.
I will try it.
but seems the exporter for 2.5 doesn't exist, only for 2.49.
i'm looking for the blender 2.49.
-
Derp Ok xDDD And what about the python-ness?
-
i have succefully installed blender with ogre exporter (in windows)
1 download and install blender 2.49b at blender-249 (http://www.blender.org/development/release-logs/blender-249/). direct link: blender-2.49b-windows.exe (http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.49b/blender-2.49b-windows.exe)
2 download exporter Blender+Exporter (http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/Blender+Exporter) or direct link: BlenderExport.zip (http://www.xullum.net/lefthand/downloads/temp/BlenderExport.zip) and unzip the file.

4 download and install python 2.6 (http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/)
or direct link:
for x86 computers: python-2.6.msi (http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6/python-2.6.msi)
for x86-64 computers: python-2.6.amd64.msi (http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6/python-2.6.amd64.msi)
now open blender and export your model.
i assume you know how to export at blender and basic usage of blender.
don't ask me how to use blender, i have never used it before. simply click file->export->ogre meshes and use intuition.
OMG i have forget, not all people are ogre experts and have OgreXmlConverter. well...
at now we have the converted blender model to xml, is correct?
we need to convert from xml to mesh:
5 download OgreXmlConverter (http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/OgreXmlConverter) or direct link: OgreCommandLineTools_1.6.3.msi (http://sourceforge.net/projects/ogre/files/ogre-tools/1.6.3/OgreCommandLineTools_1.6.3.msi/download)
drag and drop the .xml file in to OgreXmlConverter.exe and surprise!
you have a .mesh file!
if at some step I was not very clear, please let me know.
-
I'll try it naow!
-
to the path?
-
to the path?
the path where your blender is installed
ex:
c:\programfiles\blender\.blender\scripts.
-
Oh I don't have scripts in my file
-
that is rare.
search the folder with the asistant (press F3 at desktop), maybe you aren't looking for at the right place.
if you don't find it, i will test again my tutorial.

Sub-folders are the folders in-side the folder :3 So, put the exporter {ogremeshesexporter.py} and the sub-folders {ogrehelp and ogrepkg} into {C:\blender-2.49b-windows\.blender\scripts}
-
Ok so I did the first half and moved the folders and I also downloaded the and setup the second part but I'm confused on how to get a .xml file and really mostly all the second part.
-
if all is done corectly, you can see this menu: OGRE meshes
(http://fotos.subefotos.com/959f37fdf72d16c6cbad511626ac02e2o.png)
you can see it?
then do this:
(http://fotos.subefotos.com/6156d41a9574ebb3d5801c835bd42f4fo.png)
goto to the selected output directory, and you will see the xml file.
be sure your Operating System show name extensions
-
I have the 2.49 version..
-
Im using the good blender. And ok.

Export materials is how you want your material file to be created. It is best to at least change "scene" to match your mesh. otherwise, every-time you export, the scene.mat file will keep overwriting itself and mess up older meshes.
Rendering materials is the option you want if the mesh has 1 texture. But you'll have to punch in the right code after the file is created. (I usually snag one from FH lol)
Game Engine Materials works best for multiple textures but will give you a pretty long mat name for each texture. (ex: tex/aplha/imagefile.png)

Thanks Hammy
