[solved] blender export mesh with armature

[TJ_00]

Hi everyone,

When I want to export a mesh with armature from blender I get the "mesh has unapplied transformations.  This will never work for a mesh with an armature." error.

Using the search function I found 2 threads discussing this:

Tried everything suggested there, but I am still stuck. Would be great if you could point me to the right direction!

.blend is attached exporter version 5.2

I thank you in advance!

You have un-applied scale.  I applied it.  works for me.  Direction were right in the first topic you reference.

Aww crap... I thought I double checked everything...

Sorry and Thanks for your help!

 

EDIT: Fail save guide (some steps might be unnecessary):

1. select the armature in object mode set all rotations to 0 (not -0) and all scales to 1

2. select the mesh in object mode set all rotations to 0 (not -0) and all scales to 1

3. select the armature in object mode and do object>apply>rotation and scale from the menu

4. do the same for the mesh

5. do steps 1 and 2 again! (I failed to do that)

6. select the mesh in edit mode, set the 3d cursor to your meshes position and resale the mesh using the cursor as pivot point to fit the armature again.

7. export
