This is exactly what I've been hoping to find.

Thanks OP for posting this.

Probably not doing anything wrong. Blender got rid of layers in 2.80, and now they are collections in the Outliner. I need to update the videos to reflect the 2.80 changes still.

Things are a bit in flux as Blender changed versions. I did a couple of quick patches to get it mostly working, but it still needs a lot of care and feeding. I'm hoping to spend a bit of time this holiday season to get a lot of the low hanging fruit cleaned up.

You also need to activate the addon

Fixed now thanks to TheUltimateGhost.

Import as a zip, not as a python individual

I feel compelled to post, and say, "Curse you Heffay!" Until a week ago I never touched MWO, or Blender. Now I find myself spending all of my free time (and staying up WAY-too-late at night) copying *.pak files from one drive to another, playing around with 3D models, and wading through tutorials. I realize I'm about seven years late to the party. Still.

Seriously: Heffay, please accept sincere thanks for starting all of this up, sharing generously, and sticking with it over time. In addition, thanks to everyone else who has contributed, even those who took the time to post their error messages and those who responded with helpful suggestions for solving problems - I encountered many of the same errors early on and, happily, found the solutions here.

I've had good success extracting (most) models, and I think I've got about 0.001% of Blender figured. Working on getting textures to stick to the mechs (THANKS also to Andreas80 for the materials node group) and situating mechs inside actual scenes. Great fun.

Peace,

cs

Those colors remind me of the textures used in final fantasy 7.

probably best ppl to ask are BT modders, also there is no single .dae for the timberwolf or any other mech, i had to import the timber part for part by hand when I ported it to BT, as the importer tool failed on it

Hey folks,

Its been a long while and I'm trying to get back into 3D printing these battlemechs. However, I'm struggling with the Blender update and Heffay's new cryengine_importer.

Can I get some help? I can't even get Blender to enable the importer script!

So what am I doing wrong do you think?

Likewise, I'm having trouble downloading the importer from Heffay's GitHub. Tried it on a multitude of browsers and when I click the importer box nothing appears.

Does it work from here? This is where my website is supposed to get the latest release.

Which version of Blender and the Importer are you using?

Just curious if this is still working or if there are any updates. I tried it today but it doesn't seem to work.

It should still be working. Can you tell me what mech you tried, and what the problem was?
