Need help exporting mesh

Postby javierdl » Sun Jan 10, 2010 3:09 am

Hi all!
I'm a total rookie with MH ;)
Is it possible to export to OBJ already (and/or other format)?
I read it is, but I can't find how :(
Nothing happens when I click on the "e" key, neither when I click on the "export" button :(
I'm using Win7. I do have MS C++ 2008, Python 2.6, etc

Thanks in advance for your help,

JDL
P.S. Did attempt a search before posting, but the search wouldn't allow me to, it kept saying the words were too common (export mesh).

Your exports should be in makehuman/exports. If they aren't, check if the exports folder exists and has write permissions.

Thank you so much for replying mflerackers :)

Although my "exports" folder says it's only Read Only :( And I can't figure out these permissions thing in Win7 yet, the MH console doesn't seem to show any indication that it's even trying to either save neither export a file (I hope you can correct me on this):

What do you think?

Right click the exports folder, go to the security tab, and edit permissions for your user, add write permissions. Do the same for the models folder. The dialog looks like this http://www.uwec.edu/help/WinVA/Images/d ... ropsec.gif.

Thanks again mflerackers :)

Is this the way it should look?
If so, then why the console still says "IOError: [ErrNo 13] Permission denied: u' exports/mh_test03.obj' "

I really don't like this confusing use of these permissions business in Win7 :(

Not Administrators, but Users.
