JM Export for 2.5 version of Blender

Post by yzmxer608 »

Would it be possible to have a working export script for the 2.5 versions of Blender? The current one doesn't work, I can save, then open it in the older versions, then export from there, but it's kind of a hassle doing that every time.

if nobody will, I can rewrite the script, because my current job is scripting for the 2.5 Blender version :D

As far as I'm aware you can still use that script in the newer blender versions. Just open up your text editor in one window of blender, then open the python script in there. Then just run python script.

Hmmm haven't tried that, just tried installing it in the preferences.

Gave me a "Import error: No Module named blender" at line 22.

I just took a quick look at the 2.5 docs and it looks like there are major changes. So I have a fair amount of reading to do before I can port it.

Does the 2.5 beta work well?

Yeah, I don't think I've had any problems with it so far.

main difference is that Blender 2.5 use Python 3.1 and there are changes from the 2.6 version....but as I said I did lots of scripts to the new version for my company, so if you jlv has not time for it, I can rewrite the script for Blender 2.5 ;)

I only skimmed the 2.5 docs, but it looks like the Blender module has been replaced with bpy, which has a completely new API.
