Title: [CoD] xmodel and xamin export script for Blender
Post by: CoDEmanX on November 13, 2011, 05:28:55 AM

I recently released alpha 2 of a Blender plugin, which adds export support for Call of Duty's XMODEL_EXPORT and XANIM_EXPORT files. It allows you to create xmodels and xanims with Blender (2.59 currently supported, 2.60 is being developed).

Read more on the RGN wiki:

Alpha 3 release soon! It will support model export to vCoD / CoD:UO and Notetracks for CoD5 / CoD7

Create models and animations for CoD using free Blender and Blender-CoD addon (without Maya)!

Alpha 3 release:

• Added XMODEL_EXPORT v5 (vCoD, CoD:UO) and NT_EXPORT (CoD5, CoD7), but not yet tested
• Experimental xmodel import available via File > Import menu (imports RIGS ONLY, bone rotations will be incorrect!)
• Export of pose animations to model sequences, can be used to export a model in a certain pose instead of rest pose (single frame)
• Minimum bone weight is now adjustable/optional (for advanced users)
• Blender 2.6x as well as 2.59 is suitable (v2.60 used for development)
• Fixed armature export, prior releases miscalculated bone coordinates and parent indices
• Bone rotations (roll) might still be wrong, please report if so!

Changes
v0.3.2: Fixed two issues - Pose to model sequence caused error if there was an armature due to a missing PoseBone property tail_local / "Vertex number out of sync" error fixed

v0.3.3: "Vertex index out of range" finally fixed, made vertex clean-up optional (it's not really usefull, as CoD converter ignores unbound verts)
Download Blender-CoD Addon v0.3.3 (http://code.google.com/p/blender-cod/downloads/detail?name=Blender-CoD_Addon_v0.3.3_alpha3.zip)

Features for v0.4.0: XMODEL_EXPORT import, working on it! (to be used together with Tom_Bmx's XmodelUtils)
