Hi... I'm a total noob to game design, have a background in traditionnal animation...

I just downloaded Blender 2.42 with the latest torque export... when I try to export, I get :

ImportError: No module named DTSPython

error message in my console window... I have little to no programming skill... could someone help me?

Thanks a bunch! :)

It sounds like the exporter code isn't installed properly.

Make sure you have the latest version of the exporter, 0.91. You can download it from projects.blender.org.

Unzip the file to some place convenient making sure you keep the path/folder names. In WinZip this means you should have the "Use folder names" checkbox checked. Then read Readme.html file in that directory with your browser, it should give you instructions on how to install and begin using the exporter.

Are you using Linux or Windows or Mac?

I can help you with Linux but not the others.

I had a similar problem, this helped thanks Todd!

With winzip I alway unzip my files to a folder away from the tools I will be working with.

In Windows:

The easiest bet would be to right click and extract to a file stuct. Then go into that folder and select all and
copy all files to keeping the folder sturucture to the "Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts\"
drop everything in. This works with blender 2.42 and DTSExporter_92.

The blender file will appear in the folder location you pulled your image from.

(Linux would be a little differnt there is an .sh file in the directory.)

Thanks again!
