Hi again,
I’ve finished up a new version of my Blender2Ldraw Exporter.
You can now drop it into the .blender>scripts directory and it’ll automatically
show up in the Export menu. It now rotates exported objects to compensate for a
difference in the orientation between LDraw and Blender, and scales objects up
automatically, so that they can match Ldraw pieces imported with Alv67’s script
in Blender, and still match Ldraw scale when exported back out.
The one caveat of using the script is that you have to apply transformations in
Blender (ctrl+a) before exporting, otherwise it may produce odd results.
It can also export conditional lines now, but they only serve to force smoothing
in LDView, and don’t actually work right just yet. They’re commented out right
now, if you want to see what it does with them enabled, just open the script and
remove the “#’ for those particular lines.
It still only works for one object at a time in Blender, I do intend to change
that if necessary - I have plans for a few other scripts now, one of which may
negate the need for multi-object export.
