Has any one got a blender armour template or tell me how I can get one out of the game.
Sorry if this is in the wrong place

Whenever I import a .x file exported from blender into FE, it crashes, but when I import into a weapon graphic, it works, no error. It's kind of strange because if you import it into a weapon graphic and save the model LOD, it fixes it for fable. With the new model you exported from FE, you can use DavidKron's modelinjector.
Are you shpongled?

See, this is not the first time that I have heard this. Do you mean that you export from blender, import with FE, then save it from FE, then re-import it? Because to me that seems highly redundant. If it exports correctly, then surely that means the data structure is already in the correct format within the game code, or else it wouldn't export properly. Or do you mean that clicking "Save LOD" and saving the file somewhere somehow fixes the problem, and no further action is required for it to work properly in the game?

This is all kind of confusing, but what I was saying was that if you load a mesh (into a weapon graphic in FE) that was exported from blender, and save it from FE, you can import it into any graphic and it will work right. Before, it wouldn't let you load the mesh into a graphic in FE, but now, it will let you load it into any graphic. It's like when you load it into a weapon graphic it's like okay this is a weapon, lets fix it up a little bit... And it basically does what fablex does. It makes it go from
To
It is like the weapon graphic acts like fablex and just loads the model no problem and fixes it so it is fable friendly.

Yeah, you import the messed up model (the first picture^^)that has freshly been exported from blender (how bout we say the file is called "elvhelm.x") into a weapon graphic and then export/save LOD and lets say you name it "ElvenHelmet.x". elvhelm.x is gonna look like the first picture, and ElvenHelmet.x is gonna look like the second picture. Sorry if I make it sound like a little 5 year old explaining, it's just I'm so used to explaining stuff to newbie kids on mmo's.

Again, but doing this would be redundant. If that is the case, then it isn't necessary to do anything to the model after exporting from blender, and it will just work out-of-the-box. It doesn't matter what the .x file looks like, only what exists within Graphics.big

But it doesn't work out-of-the-box. The whole reason we are doing this is to make the mesh work with model injector to inject skinweights. You can just import it into a weapon graphic and yes it will work fine, but it won't have skinweights. An exported .x file from blender won't work with modelinjector. I'm not sure if this works for everyone or just me. I can make a video of me doing this to show you what I'm talking about.

I'm having quite a bit of difficulty getting what you are trying to say about armor and weapon graphics, but the second half is pretty cool. Maybe the more recent version of the .x exporter in fable is compatible with fable then.

I'm sorry for the confusion. It was kind of complicated and unnecessary. It's much easier to just skinweight it in 3ds.

. Kind of off topic but, morerunes do you know if the sculpting mode in blender works with .x files? Because everytime i use it and export the model i worked on as .x then import it into FE it seems to have an error :/. Maybe it's because sculpt mode messes with the skinweight or hierarchy?I have no clue really.
