Blender Import/Export to warcraft?

[rover2341]

If I use the current version of blender is there a way to import/export models to warcraft?

If not is there a older version that can?

i think there might be a way to do it if you can export from milkshape 3d, and from milkshape to wc3. I think there is a working blender exporter to milkshape, but can't be sure. besides that there's a user here who's also a mod that's working on a blender wc3 exporter.

here's his profile http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/members/hawk900/

What can go to milkshape to warcraft?

if you mean from milkshape to warcraft, this milkshape plugin here http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=86308

follow the instructions on there, if you don't understand something, message me and i'll explain it or re-phrase it for you

At the moment there is no functioning MDL or MDX importer or exporter.

There is an out-dated script called Warblender which can be found at the link, but it doesn't work at all without some minor modifications and doesn't work well without being re-written.
EDIT: And apparently can't be downloaded. I'll see if I still have something on my machine.

I'm currently working on Blender importers/exporters but that's been delayed while the 2.5 API is being re-developed.

Sweet Thanks for the info. I hope you will be able to finish it in the next few months.

you can just get any program that can import the .obj type and export it from blender as an .obj and then just export it from the other program as an .mdx.....id suggest milkshape3d for that while we wait for the exporter from hawk
