 | | Blender LDraw support —Yann Vernier
|
| | | I hope this isn't off topic for this list. I've begun writing some scripts for Blender to import (and eventually export) LDraw DAT files. Cropped screenshot of result (pieces 105, 10 and 73057): (URL) location (currently 5KB): (2 URLs) features: (...) (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | (...) I'm not a Blender user. Yet. I would like MPD support if/when I start using Blender and your script. (20 years ago, 12-Jul-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | | Re: Blender LDraw support —Yann Vernier
|
| | | | | | (...) Well, I'm a bit further along now. No MPD support yet, but it'll be easy to add. It now supports hierarchical loading with piece recognition, loading even the Masakari model in a tolerable amount of time. In the process I noticed not all parts (...)

|
| | | | | | (...) Part detection is problematic due to changes over time in the library. For reference, LDView uses the following to identify parts: File is in the Parts directory, and isn't a descendent of any other parts at the time the file is loaded (sub (...)

| | | | | Hopefully you're still out there... This is really great that you've written this! Makes things alot easier for us who aren't that good with modeling tools. However, I'm having some problems, hopefully you can help me out? I try to import ldrs and (...) (20 years ago, 12-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | | Re: Blender LDraw support —Yann Vernier
|
| | | | | | (...) In the current form the path to LDraw primitives and parts (ldraw/p and ldraw/parts) are hardcoded into the script. You'll need to change those before it will load anything referring to the part library correctly. If that doesn't help I'd (...) (20 years ago, 13-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

|
| | | | | | | (...) Yes, that is the place. Explorer is probably showing backslashes (\) rather than slashes; you'll have to change those to either \\ or /. A future version of this script will probably try to locate your LDraw directory. So you could change the (...) (20 years ago, 16-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | | | Well, I fixed that, and it seems to be trying to load the model (I get a busy icon and such), but now it's hanging on another section. I now get this: Traceback <most recent call last>: File "<string>", line 340, in loaddat File "<string>", line (...) (20 years ago, 16-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

| | | | | | | | (...) Neither am I. However, line 318 isn't in childreBobj in the most recent public version of the script. Since that's the only one that works in Blender 2.34 (and it probably has trouble with some types of files anyway, such as if they contain (...) (20 years ago, 17-Aug-04, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Recent additions: * Requires Blender 2.34 for some convenient functions. * Creates materials for each LDraw colour used, but does not fill in colours. * ldrawdir is now high in the script and (...)
