Trouble with converted meshes crashing the game, Help Plz?
« on: August 08, 2012, 09:53:23 pm »
OK first off my work flow started building my meshes in maya 2009 them importing them using OBJ's into Blender 2.63a and then exporting to the ogre file format .mesh and .material. However I do got to admit, fresh from the export the .mesh file had an extra extension .xml. SO I went and change the file extension to .mesh.

Once in the object maker in the game the whole thing just freezes..... I don't think it's poly count because I tested the work flow with a 4 sided basic cube and it still freezes.

I just hope that their is someone out there that can help me???..... :(

I'm not good with meshes but I think changing the file extension manually to .mesh made it crash. http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=11025.0 I think you are missing the .xml converter that is linked to this board.

kaylawolf91 is right, plus check you are exporting with Ogre version 1.7.  Ogre 1.8 makes the game to crash.

Thanks guys ^_^ !! The only problem I'm having now is figuring out how to install the command line tools. ANY Help with this ???

here you get the command line tools:

And to convert the .xml file to .mesh, simply drag the .xml file in to the executable file OgreXMLConverter.exe and the .mesh file will appear.

Good it is fixed, any meshes are welcome. People likes very much to have new objects.
