The script ''OGRE Meshes Exporter'' converts meshes and armatures from ((Tools: Blender|Blender)) to OGRE file format {LEX()}XML{LEX} / binary mesh / material file). It supports the export of
* {LEX()}mesh{LEX} objects with vertex colours, multiple materials, ((-UV Coordinates|UV)) textures and blend modes,
* a multitude of {LEX()}material{LEX} properties, most notably: ambient, diffuse, specular, emissive, UV textures with and without alpha channel, vertex colours, normal maps, two sided faces,
* keyframe animations of armature actions as skeleton animations,
* keyframe animations of relative mesh shapes as pose or morph animations.

!!Installation
* [http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/|Download] + install Blender
* Download and integrate the Blender Exporter. ([http://www.xullum.net/lefthand/downloads/temp/BlenderExport.zip|zip] | [http://ogre.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ogre/branches/v1-6/Tools/BlenderExport/|SVN])
* Copy ''ogremeshesexporter.py'' and subfolders to the path ''...\blender\.blender\scripts''.
** Note: ''.blender for Blender 2.49b (latest stable) on Windows 7 is located in ~np~C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts~/np~''
* Install Python. This is not needed for Blender itself, but for the exporter script. Choose the same [http://www.python.org/download/releases/|Python version] that is used as Base for your Blender version (you'll see it when you start Blender).
