import_pix.py to blender 2.8 about gametools HOT 41 CLOSED

You are better off converting from csv to obj using this https://github.com/sbobovyc/GameTools/blob/master/common/raw2obj.py

from gametools.

raw2obj.py didn't work either for me, i click import its says modules installed ()
but there no import added

from gametools.

raw2obj.py is not a blender plugin, it is a stand alone command line tool

from gametools.

how do you then use it? if i open it it just closes itself again

from gametools.

@stormloop What OS are you using?

from gametools.

Windows 10

from gametools.

do i need a special python thing to run it?

from gametools.

Python 3, nothing special. Just get a command line shell and run it similar to this:
python3 raw2obj.py -h
That should print the help.

from gametools.

well i have 3.8.1, i guess that works too

from gametools.

when i do what you said it gives me:

python3 raw2obj.py -h
File "", line 1
python3 raw2obj.py -h
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

from gametools.

the ^is under the r from raw2obj.py

from gametools.

How did you download raw2obj.py? Did you click on "Raw" button and then save as text file?

from gametools.

is that the way to do it?

from gametools.

Another is to clone or download the entire repo. If you just want that script, raw is fine.

from gametools.

then yes it still does that, but dont you need to pase a file path? not just a file name

from gametools.

You can either pass the full path to where the script is like:
python3 C:\Users\sbobovyc\Desktop\raw2obj.py -h
or you can change directory to where the script is and run it there:
cd C:\Users\sbobovyc\Desktop
python3 raw2obj.py -h

from gametools.

it gives the same error for that that it gave for actually trying to run the command
the cd one

from gametools.

Can you post a screen shot of exactly what you are doing?

from gametools.

sorry for late answer, i was quite busy the past few days...

from gametools.

You are executing a shell command on the python shell. Instead of starting a python shell, use cmd (Command Prompt) or PowerShell.

from gametools.

i feel kinda stupid, but this is now in cmd (its just in dutch), -h doesnt seem to do much

from gametools.

Let's see if your python path is set. Try this:

from gametools.

does nothing, so i guess its not set, how do i set it? also sorry for the amount of questions, kinda new to this

from gametools.

ok i followed the internet and now my path should be set, python --version still doesnt do anything but python3 redirects me to the download page of python3.8 in de microsoft store, i downloaded it and path is linked, so i tried the help command again but now i get this:

from gametools.

You are getting closer. You need to install the pandas module. If that version of python came with pip (pip3), you can use that to install it.

pip3 install pandas

from gametools.

i installed, but couldnt type again after, started new cmd and got the same error

from gametools.

Did pip install not complete? If that's the case, then pandas module did not get installed and that explains the error.

from gametools.

ok now it worked, i was a little too quick with closing cmd it seems, i am having difficulties understanding how to use it, english isnt my first language after all...

from gametools.

It's a bit of a Swiss army knife, so I can't really sum it up for you. Do you have an object you are trying to convert to obj?

from gametools.

i do, but cant acces my pc atm, essentially i am trying to get models from elite dangerous ships, so the one i'll send wont be a full ship as thats the restrictions on renderdoc or tje csv file format

from gametools.

here is what i am trying to convert atm:
Anaconda.zip

from gametools.

I think you grabbed the projected version of the model. Can you share the renderdoc file?

from gametools.

Also, I found a bug in the script, so download the latest version.

from gametools.

ill share in a few hours, why do you need the renderdoc and not the csv though? doesnt the csv contain all points etc.?

from gametools.

http://www.mediafire.com/file/12kth01wulfqf7v/CaptureAnaconda.zip/file
this is the link to the renderdoc, it was too big to just embed...

from gametools.

Take a look at this.

from gametools.

ok

from gametools.

lmao did you make that page just now with the renderdoc i provided? thanks...

from gametools.

ok so... if only IDX and position columns are important, what do you do with the rest? or do you just do -position and it takes care of it yourself?

from gametools.

and it works, thank you very much, i honestly have no idea how you didn't give up yet, i know i asked a lot of stupid questions and still you managed to make it work... thank you very much.

from gametools.

No problem. I did not expect that many people to get a hold of that script, so I never wrote up any documentation. Keep on experimenting with it and if you have any questions submit another issue.
