Update to tutorial, please comment on content

#21 Jesse,
There are lots of different ways to do things. You need to understand the editors first be they Blender, Milkshape, etc. The only nodes that matter are the ones that are called out in the node lists for the different types of shapes. Those are on the main TDN artwork page. I am not going to duplicate what others have done, and I am not going to create a step by step walk through.

You really need to use other tutorials especially the ones that have nothing to do with Torque. It has taken me 3 years or more to understand Blender to the extent I now do. I don't expect it will take you that long if you use the "noob to pro" tutorials. Then once you have a full understanding of the tool you can work through the basic tutorials for the DTS exporter. Even the ones not specifically for Blender. They will give you a depth of understanding for how the exporters work. Then come back to this tutorial and all the blanks will be filled in.

I know it is difficult to work through this the first time. However, you are already well on your way to understanding Blender. I think some of the "magic" of the way things work needs to be dispelled before you can really understand. Make a bunch of artwork using bones, IK, etc and put them in static shapes. This is a great place to start especially for short term success and confidence building.

Thanks for your help.

#23 Could you please post the tutorial where it is possible to access it as TDN will not allow normal GG users access.

#24 I don't understand. All TGE owners have access to TDN. You may have to login, but once you do go and try the link again. Sometimes TDN causes people to have to relogin.
