Export a bunch of .nif files at once with Blender?

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 4:36 am

Hello,



I've created this topic because I'm just wondering if it is possible to export multiple .nif files (TES III: Morrowind compatible version) at once with Blender, via a batch script or something similar, automatically.
More exactly, I want to convert some meshes for a personal project for Morrowind. But, after searched on the Web, I wasn't able to find how to do this... : (

So, it is possible to make a batch script for exporting/converting multiple files at once in .nif format with Blender?

Thanks for your help! : )

Blender can be controlled by python scripts- and the Morrowind nif exporter is a python script. I bet you could come up with a python script that would load a file and then trigger the nif exporter with a set of parameters (and then do it again and again with the other models). Look up Blender python programming, I suppose. Python is easy (ish) but Blender tends to make everything a bit of a nightmare, I've never tried to script Blender.
