While looking for a good 3D modeling and animation program for Linux, I came upon Blender. Learning to use it is a pain in the a… but I actually like the program. Once you know how to use it, you can actually get things done faster than with the other programs (mostly Windows stuff) I’ve tried. I love Blender.
The problem is, I can’t use it for what I wanted to do. I want to create some animated models in the QuakeII (md2) format.
After a lot of searching on the net, I’ve found two references to a Python script that can be used within Blender to export md2 files. The problem is that both references are from 1999, and the pages they refer to no longer exist.
I’ve tried every search machine that I know, and all I get are the two references that I’ve got.
The file itself is called “md2mod.tar.gz.” Both references are from the members.xoom.com homepages. I’ve not even been able to get the xoom homepage - members.xoom gets me some MSN stuff, and www.xoom.com gets me a cannot connect error.
The pages referenced are:
http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/projects/golib/stg/md2mod.tar.gz
and
http://members.xoom.com/chwillrich
Can anyone help me find this file? Is there an archive of Xoom stuff somewhere?
