Hello, i would like to make some mods of my own..
so in few days week i familiarized myself with construciton set and Blender.. i want to take next step now, and do something. :-D

Im confident i can create 3d object in blender of what i want, but the game objects have .mesh ending and i cant edit that.. nor can i save my creations in blender with that ending..

1) How do i put what i make in blender, into a game? Or how can i save a blender creation with .mesh ending?
Thank you a lot for your help

You need http://www.xullum.net/lefthand/download ... Export.zip

the exported file will be .xml so you will have to use

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ogre/fi ... p/download

to turn the file into .mesh

Ok, so i tried what you suggested and i run into few more problems..

The exporter, you gave me link for only works for blender 2,49.. and the blender i downloaded is v. 2.67b.. currently, there is no functioning exporter for that blender ..or i didnt find it (and i looked hard)..

i found one that changes my models to .txml.. but nono that do .xml

Secondly, i secondly, i realized i dont know what properties should my model have, so that it would show up in the game properly ... (like size, position.. so it wouldnt be partially in a flooor...)

3rdly.. one time i thought i managed to export my model.. but the exporter told me something that my model isnt scaled right..
Where do you create your models guys? how do you convert them to .mesh? because there is awfully little information on internet about it.. as if it was so easy noone bothered to make a tutorial...

Ps. i attached my creation.. its my first model ever, so be gentle with me. But if you have some feedback i would welcome it. It will be steel bars storage box.. since its missing in the game right now (its not really necessare for gameplay since you need just few of those.. but its easy.. and it has some use players could appreciate..)

Thanks a lot

Well, i finally found working exporter... and i have a converter.. that means part of my problem is gone..

But, when i view what i make, it looks a bit different.. it misses the side L profiles and the viewer cant find material.. (i use OgreMeshy)
