Title: Using blender for meshing?
Post by: xTERRIx on August 13, 2008, 11:48:30 pm
hi all :D

i was inspired by Tenshii Akari to start meshing with Blender. as soon as she started meshing, i was amazed. then, Tenshii mentioned that she uses blender. i've downloaded blender, but i don't know what else i need :( can anyone point me in the right direction? i've also got Photoshop and SimPE

thanks in advance *huggles everyone*

I'm a Blender mesher myself. If you're going to be meshing using just .obj files, then you've basically got everything you need already. Just remember to check the file format when you export it in SimPE. If you're using .smd files, on the other hand, you'll need bobcatben's SMD Importer and Exporter for Blender (http://www.modthesims2.com/download.php?t=246658) from MTS2. Reading through the comments to that post can also give you some useful tips.

Oh, and if you're doing textures, UVMapper (http://www.uvmapper.com/) is always helpful.
