opening model files
opening model files
So I have read the info in model files and I still dont have a clue on how to open the model files. What code do I put where inorder for the files to be openable. Also what 3d software does everyone suggest.
Thx,
LordGarth

Blender would be my first choice; The exporter could be written in Python.LordGarth wrote:So I have read the info in model files and I still dont have a clue on how to open the model files. What code do I put where inorder for the files to be openable. Also what 3d software does everyone suggest.

Either version Blender 2.49b or 2.62 ~or 2.63 (maybe); the API differs a bit between them.
Re: opening model files
I have blender and I have used it a little.
I guess i need a tutorial for step by step coding for importer.

Re: opening model files
just paste the code into the python console and you should have a Legend of Grimrock Mesh file (.mesh) import option, but I just realized that we need .model

And another resource (however this one is specific to the Blender 2.4x versions; it may be helpful indirectly, unless you are coding for the 2.4x version): http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2 ... -Exporters

There is a tutorial for the 2.4x version: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Doc:2 ... ython/BSoD
** I use both 2.49b and 2.62 (and 2.63). The reason I use 2.4x is that I prefer the UI, and it has more import export scripts for formats that I use ~most notably, the Nif Script import expot for Gamebryo only works with Blender 2.49 (or 2.4x?)
