B3D Exporter

[StuC]

Has anyone done a B3D exporter yet ? - just we have moved recently to using Blitz3D :)

I find the .X and .3DS export works excellent - until - I want to grab an object name.

Unless Im missing something with the 3DS export ?

Blitz publish a nice spec sheet for anyone with the time todo an exporter.

No rush on this now - as I found what I was doing wrong upon loading into the app ! :oops:

I've been working on an exporter myself. Between work and other projects, it's been slow going, but I make a little more progress every couple of weeks or so :D At this rate I should be done by the time all computers are holographic and the latest Blitz3D is called BlitZHoloDeck v3.1.

Although, now that there's seems to be a bit of interest, I'll see if I can get it finished sooner.

I for one will use it :)

Ok, after I get through this loooong work week and get a little sleep, I'll try starting up on it again. It may be a while before I get anything useful working so don't hold your breath :oops: <- imagine this little smiley turning blue instead of pink. :D

Any news on this yet - you wanting some money, beer, DVD's sent over as blackmail?

Still here :)
The project was kinda put on the shelf for a bit. Ran into a problem that requires me to restructure the entire plugin in order to solve, plus three hurricanes, plus other projects, kinda had me loose my steam.
If you like, I can send you what I already have. It will save your mesh, but without colors, brushes, textures, or anything like that. Just the mesh itself is saved.

Hi TomToad,

I'm very interested in a Blitz3D exporter.

If you need a beta tester, feel free to contact me:

Good luck, and beware the hurricanes !!

Hi alltogether,

i have found out, that you have to load your mesh as animmesh and then find the child - object by the name you entered in the object property editor. That worked for me. But an B3D im- / exporter would be really great !
