I wanted to put some text on my map and just wanted to see if anyone has made the whole alphabet.
Just a basic letter in a group would be fine and I will just group the groups into word.
So if anyone has any type of thing like that I wouldn't mind you sharing it with me (and the rest of the forums)
Or show me how to get BZW for blender.
I would do it myself on blender but I can't seem to get the BZFlag object part installed properly.
I know blender has a text to mesh option, if only I could get it installed properly.
I search the forums for it found BZWord but it is "currently unavailable".
Thanks!

Re: Mesh Alphabet
I'm thinking that Wings3D can do that, but it's been a while since I played with any modeling software. I could be thinking of Blender.

Re: Mesh Alphabet
wings3d does letters and numbers.
Re: Mesh Alphabet
yeah I know wings3d and blender and a host of other 3d modelling programs can do that.
But I just have a problem with converting the .obj to .bzw .
There is BZWTools for blender and a BZW converter for wings3d I have tried and failed to use these.
I just don't know how to convert the file over.

Re: Mesh Alphabet
Well, Wings3D can export directly to BZW...

Re: Mesh Alphabet
For an example of mesh letters generated by hand see my reimplementation of the Pillbox map at BRL.ARPA.NET:5156. The letters are positioned to be visible when you join but have not spawned for the first time. The alphabet is far from complete.

Re: Mesh Alphabet
Wings 3D will allow you to make letters in any font and export them directly to BZW. What more could you need?
