Blitz3D to OgreXML (B3d->Ogre.xml) converter

Hello everyone,

I feel to share this piece of tool I coded a couple of years ago.

I could have an ogre demo, which I can't find right now, but I will post here ASAP, done with a maplet lightmapped mesh, and a generic ogre.3ds I had on my drive wrapped with magical vertex shader 2.0 (like wobble gum and other already present in the OgreSDK) applied to it.

This software is Freeware

Check it out, and write here a note if it was useful.

Download Blitz2Ogre

It is a small tool done with blitz3D and bui and can converts .b3d meshes (for example done with maplet) + lightmaps into ogre.mesh (XML format) with lightmaps (2nd uv channel) support.

The material export features is broken so please don't use it.

There is a maplet .b3d scene I did for example included

Use mouse + left and right mousebuttons on the 3d view to look around the mesh (not so good I know)


Bye,



some image of the tool to capture your attention!

you know, sometime in this world done of images some text isn't just enough!

Thank you!

Bye,

Very nice - thanks - I see there's a save skeleton option - does it export animation too ?

Will try this, thank you.

No sorry,

Skeleton (bones) and maplet lights as entities are not supported yet.

If anybody is interested in finalizing this for supporting non-static bones mesh and entities, (eg: have the source code to make future version avaiable for free to the community, GPL license) drop a mail to: info@...

Bye,

Damn, looks like a brilliant tool. Were releasing Flow3D beta around christmas, Can I plug this on our site? Flow3D being an game dev solution for blitzmax. http://www.flow3d.org

Seems like it would be a nice tool to get old media over to flow :) And even has a UI...

Yes but please use the link I provided and do not host the file directly on your website. Just link it please.

I like your work, I expected something like that.

Unfortunately i'm only a blitz3D and Ogre user (with c++)

Please go on!

haha, two threads- Nice work! :-) definitely going to be useful!!!

Hey thanks, I'll list your game and give it a page on the wiki when thats done. Linking to your download URL as specified :)
