Hi I want to use this program called terrain to make my terrains. I want to use them in Blender. I can export the terrain as a lightwave 3-D oblect but to import it into Blender it says I need a python plug-in or something like that. Does anyone know how to do this?
Your lightwave 3-D must be having export option. Export as Object, then import that file in Blender using Blender Import.
You can import LW file directly in blender using Import LW.
File->Import->Lw
the lightwave importer comes with blender and is in the import menu, if you have any problems try installing python.
When I try to Import the lw object It says I need a full python install.
Ideasman42, You said that I should try installing Python. I have the full version of Python and it still does not work!
kKrawal, You said to export the object as an object but Terrain does not have that opsion.
Thanks for your guys’ Ideas! Do you have any more?
>>When I try to Import the lw object It says I need a full python install.
This is your problem. even if you think you have the full install of python, Blender does not think so. Each Blender install seems to be matched to a certain version of python. You must have the “correct” version of python installed for some of the Blender scripts to work.
Simply post the version of Blender you are running.
Also post the version of python you have installed.
I have used the LWO import several times, it works fine.
I use Blender 2.44 with python 2.5 installed.
It works now!
