Why go a long and hard road?
Just use one of the two existing and working NWN to Ogre Mesh converters...

AFAIK Irrlicht now supports loading of Ogre Mesh format...

How can I use the "pymdl2mesh.py"? I mean what is this .py file or how can I use it to convert the files to Ogre Mesh?Duncan Mac Leod wrote:Why go a long and hard road?

You will need support for Python (http://www.python.org/) if you want to use .py files (needed for pymdl2mesh) or support for Lua (http://www.lua.org/) if you want to use mdl2mesh!MasterGod wrote:How can I use the "pymdl2mesh.py"?

In addition you will need the Ogre3D SDK (http://www.ogre3d.org/) so you can use the OgreXMLConverter for converting the output (which is in OgreXML Mesh Format) to Ogre Binary Mesh Format...
One note: I am using Ogre3D for my project, so I cannot guarantee that it will work with Irrlicht, but I have read that Irrlicht now supports Ogre Mesh Format. I can only say that it works with Ogre3D including Animations, never tested it with Irrlicht (Ogre Mesh Support)!

Irrlicht's Ogre mesh loader does not support animations. Animation support might increase with the integration with the new animation system, though. Before this is done (in one of the next releases), no new animation format will be supported. But all currently supported static mesh loaders are good candidates for adding animation support (so Collada, Ogre3d, or 3ds might be implemented), or we add the NWN loader. However, a first glance presented a weird mix of all render phases into the animation class. So it might take some more time before the mentioned loader could be integrated, not to talk about problems with porting to the new animation system...
Bummer. But great thanks to you all you were an excellent help, thank you!
EDIT:
I'v heard there is an importer to MilkShape for the NWN's .mdl files called: msMDLImporter1.0.zip but I cant find it.. Maybe if it's still out there it can help, hopefully.
Heard bout it here: http://www.unrealwiki.com/wiki/NeverWin ... _To_UT2003

Search Neverwinter Vault. There is a MDL -> OBJ -> MDL converter somewhere.
I can't believe I found it!! Finally! YaY!
Its a NWN .mdl to 3ds Max "converter" - more like a plug-in, it's called NWmax .8.
Ho, and I almost forgot, THANK YOU! You have no idea how much time I was looking for such a thing!! WOW, thanks!
Edit: After exporting the meshes I found there was a problem exporting the animation right, to fix it check this - http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/ ... sc&start=0

Re: What is Neverwinter Nights model format?
Hello, I study Game Programming in Korea.
I know this post was written a long time ago, but I'd still like to ask if anyone has the file, Iron Golem X,x. I've been trying to download it, but have failed.
If anyone has it, please send it to yunisig@hanmail.net.
I'd appreciate it very much.
