Pamela Galli Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I have exported as .obj many many times. This time Blender made 500 copies, tho. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquila Kytori Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 lol That shows just how well you and Blender are now working as a team. And as a good team player Blender is not waiting to be asked because it knows how you like to work ..... Open Blender. Create a mesh. UV unwrap. ( a few times). Save as .blend. Export as .obj. Close Blender. Open Blender. Import .obj Save as .Blend Export as .obj. Close Blender. Open Blender. Import .obj Save as .Blend Export as .obj. Close Blender. Open Blender. Import .obj .......... .......... ............ ............. .............. ........... If that works for your team then fine but other teams have a shorter workflow ( i think the profis call it a pipeline ) which is like this ... Open Blender. Create a mesh. UV unwrap. Save as .blend. Export as .dae Yous see the difference? You can reduce all of this : Export as .obj. Close Blender. Open Blender. Import .obj Save as .Blend Export as .obj. Close Blender. .............. ............ .......... to one step : Export as .dae Remember as team captain its you who decide how your team will play . PS sounds like you need to restart your computer . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela Galli Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 <scratches head> What? Blender is generally a good team player but seems to have gone off the deep end here recently, the 500 copies of .obj just being one symptom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dree Eames Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Aquila you have me scratching my head as well. Whaa? Actually I had this happen once when exporting an obj from Blender..2.6 something. It only happened once. It completely freaked me out and I never figured out why it happened, but happily it's never happened a second time. Must have something to do with that monkey...

Dree Eames Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Ok I think I know what happened. You were up late and working on a deadline and when you selected export as .obj you accidently checked off "animation". I just tested this. It filled my desktop with 250 objs.

Aquila Kytori Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Yes that works as well . With this setting on the time line: it saved me 4 .obj files (+ 4.mtl) ps, not going to try to be funny again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dree Eames Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Nooo! Don't give up! It was an off-night and a really bad audience . I see now that the "lol" was at the top. Usually I catch the punchline at the bottom:matte-motes-tongue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela Galli Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 Believe it or not I was TRYING to be funny too! Or at least mildly amusing. Thank you Dree for solving the mystery :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
