Title: OBJ2RA2 - Obj 3d models to RA2 bot converter - Feedback thread
Post by: apanx on February 07, 2017, 12:27:03 PM
OBJ2RA2 (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=320)
Converts obj 3d models into RA2 bots. Models need to have triangular faces.
Takes first argument of command-line as file to convert. So just drag and drop the bot file on the program.
Post comments and feedback here

Does this have much use other than making statues?

Even if it didn't this is still impressive.

If people are really good at it, they could use it in bot building. (A near quote from apanx when talking to the lad)

Holy hell. That is awesome. Will finally put Blender to use.
Mind if i make it into a Blender plugin for my own use, so it automatically saves models as bot files?

I tried using Blender to do this, but it won't convert my .obj file to a .bot file? Faces are indeed exported as triangulated...

Hmm, I use the default Blender export to .obj options. Just to try and see what happened when I used OBJ2RA2, with no result...

Title: A note about this converter tool...

*BUMP*

If I can get this conversion to work, I might get a very certain robot into Robot Arena 2 - Design & Destroy. It's been quite some time...

I'm trying to think of all the possible options this could be...
