cannot convert to egg file for panda3d

I am a beginner in panda3d, recently i came across blender 2.77 for modelling. I was disapointed to find that it cannot export egg files supported by panda3d, i searched online and found yabee and chicken but after installing those addons to blender also, i did'nt find an egg file exporter in the exporter's list.

I tried using obj and dae files in blender and then converting them to egg through obj2egg(did not load mtl files) and dae2egg(i cannot see any other color than white in pview). I have no idea of where i am wrong.

I am sure i have done the conversion correctly. Any help will be appreciated.

Solution

  • I am also new at Panda3D and I solved a problem similar to yours just a few hours ago.

    There are two ways to solve your Problem:

    1. Download another version of Blender. The last version working with YABEE is 2.66.

    2. Just export your model as a .x file (DirectX native) this works great with Panda3D
