Exporting a mesh from another program
« on: August 13, 2011, 04:12:33 pm »
Anyone know the mesh creating "Sculptris?" Supposedly it's like "Blender" which I have never personally seen.

My question is basically how would I export a mesh from there and make it into a .mesh? (IF it's even possible, a friend claimed it would work but didn't explain how) If I am able to do that how would I use it in FH? Lets say I make a simple tree or something from scratch.

If it's not under File>Export then maybe there is something you need to download to export as .mesh files?

It is possible, you need an OGRE exporter. Unfortunately I don't know much else xD

Well, it exports as .OBJ file, so not sure how to go from there.

And I have no idea what OGRE exporter is really. XD

There are a few people in the Mesh section of FH Creations that know how to convert .obj files. Try asking them :)

I don't have never used Sculptris before, but if it exports as .OBJ file, you can import the obj file at blender and then export it to ogre mesh at blender.

here I explain how to install the mesh exporter for blender.
