Blender exported 3d character missing skeleton after ImportMesh

[macavalon]

Hi

 

I've exported from blender(2.74) a 3d model that includes animation.

 

The model & animation is a simple character

 

In blender the models works fine, and animates as expected

 

 

I then export the model from blender to babylon (using io_export_babylon.py)

 

I load into a babylon scene by following "Loading bones" from 

https://github.com/BabylonJS/Babylon.js/wiki/How-to-use-bones-and-skeletons

 

BABYLON.SceneLoader.ImportMesh(meshToLoad, loadDir, sceneFileName, scene, MeshLoaded);

 

 

MeshLoaded() has debug so I can review what's loaded 

 

function MeshLoaded(newMeshes, particleSystems, skeletons)

{

console.log("meshes loaded : " + newMeshes.length);

   

console.log("skeletons loaded : " + skeletons.length);

}

 

but there seems to be no skeleton loaded by import mesh

 

 

in simplefigure_weighted.zip is the .blend file and the .babylon file

 

please any suggestions on how to get access to the skeleton so I can then invoke beginAnimation !

 

thanks

p.s. additional info

 

The version of the babylon export script (io_export_babylon.py) I downloaded from github on 04/07/2015

I export to babylon successfully, the export log file see simplefigure_weighted.log.txt

 

I'm using the latest babylon i.e.

<script src="http://www.babylonjs.com/babylon.js"></script> )

Your version of exporter is too old. (About to get older soon, as I am preparing version 3.0 ).  Up until very recently, you had to parent your mesh to the armature, but Jack Caron (no forum ID) PRed a way for the exporter to handle this without parenting.

Very good. I look forward to the latest exporter.
