Does anyone attempted to export the Urbie, yet? Any problems?

I get CTD's without errors in Blender the moment I launch the script...

Script is generated correctly as far as I can tell, everything is green...

2.73 has a bug where it will crash on import. I haven't tried 2.74 yet, but you will probably need to downgrade to 2.72 in order to get the models imported.

I really need to submit a bug report to blender.

I installed 2.74 yesterday.

I was able to get the Urban and Zeus mechs from the import.

Is this how you go about drawing your stuff or are you dabbling in 3D modeling?

I actually meant that MWO should have an urban map like that, but i see what you mean

I use Blender to pull the model and export it into a fbx file.
Then I import the model into the 3ds Max and render my pix in Max.

Here is one of many I have done in Max.

Naw, I was asking spooky if he used blender/3ds max to draw over (or to move things around for reference.) unless baabaa you're saying you're Spooky

I've noticed newer mechs don't have [mechname]_scale.cfg model in the directory. Instead there's just bunch of individual components. Is there a way to export complete mech from the game?

Yup, watch the tutorial videos; specifically the 2nd one (and supplement). Goes over how to use the mech importer script to get the components into Blender.

So I have been using the import script and I keep getting these errors seen in the following link http://imgur.com/1fTjIz9
and when I import into Blender I get the error that timberwolf_variant not defined. If anyone happens to know where I might be stuck I would appreciate it. Thanks.

2 things:

1) Run mech importer with the leading ".\" since it doesn't appear to be in the path. so: .\mech-importer.ps1

2) Be sure to modify the script so the variable points to your particular setup. Read the comments at the top of the script for more details. I think it's $basedir.

Finally got that after some trial and error, but the import.txt python script failed when moving it into blender. Currently my settings are as follows:

$basedir = "C:\Users\Aincrad\Desktop\MWO\04_10_2015" # this is where you extracted all the *.pak files from the game. \objects, \textures etc
# will be under this dir
$imageformat = ".dds" # Default image file format. If you want to use .pngs, change this

# convert the path so it can be used by Blender
$basedir = $basedir.replace("\","\\")

# Set the weapons variable to assign variant materials. Hero, invasion, blanks and Phoenix parts are variants.
$weapons = "hero","missile","narc","uac","ac2","ac5","ac10","ac20","gauss","ppc","flamer","_mg_","lbx","laser","ams","phoenix","blank","invasion"



By the way thank you for your help and inspiration, Its really nice to have something else to 3d print other than RC aircraft parts.

I know I should probably read all 72 pages for this answer, if there is one, but time is short and I have a doctors appoinment coming up in 34 minutes.

I am having a issue with Netfabb Basic creating flipped faces and random geomitry that is all but destorying a few models. I was told that the issue I am having could be a bad install or it failed to uninstall everything from a prior installation. Any truth to this, or some suggestions?
