Preparing for Export
To ready the Model for Export to ModelDoc, We need to first scale the model up to 39.37
In Object mode, Press A on keyboard.
This will select all items that are visible on scene ( You’ll see View layer window on right indicating all items are selected )
To note: If the Eye icon is closed, Then that object will not be editable.
Now select the Scale Tool on Left toolbar.
Left-click the Gimbal at the base of the model and drag out slightly.
At the bottom left a Resize box will appear, We can type our 39.37value directly into here.
Fill in each box and hit Enter
Now to make sure everything is zeroed and set, head to the top and select
“Object>Apply>All transforms”
Export
With that done, The model is now ready for Export Via FBX or DMX (BlenderSource2Tools plugin)
For Source Engine export (Under scene properties)
Be sure to set:
Export Format: DMX
DMX Version: Binary 9 I Model22 (ModelDoc)
