You can't use sketchup for that. But I don't know how to export or anything.
Nvm that, I think I can get the joints on without any problems as long as i convert it.

EDIT: Big problem, no idea how or if it is possible to convert the model :O

EDIT2: It is possible and I found a tutorial but, It am still trying to figure out what it is trying to say.

Das one hot smexy knife.

Ok, I need someone to take this knife, convert it and send it back to me.
For some reason I cannot do it because my computer does not even have the option to do it lol.

WELL, I did it!  I converted it to milkshape!  All I had to do was get the trial version of milkshape, get the 3Ds exporter for Google SketchUp
Then do all kinds of random things, but it worked!

Very nice, much better than my 2 knives :P, any advice you can give to a rookie modeler?

uhhh, this is the second weapon I have modeled, so I guess I don't really have any for you lol.
I just read a ton about making weapons and such. SketchUp is also REALLY easy to use.

The model is ready for the animator now, the only problem is the shading on the quillion or what ever it is called.
I had to regroup the parts of the knife as Milkshape saw it as just one object, so it does not have as much color as I wanted.

Here take a look.


I like the shape of the knife, but the handle is hard to see. Could we get a close up of the handle?

Here:



I am not sure if you wanted it on SketchUp or Milkshape, but I am assuming you are talking about the picture I just posted.

Oh, that's the angle I wanted.

I would give it an A~!

Lol thx.

EDIT:
I cannot get any further on this until I get an animator.
I cannot export it from Milkshape to Torque DTS Plus as I only have the trial.
I will buy it, but it still needs animations.

Also, stopping the poll at 10 votes so, 9 and 9 GO GO GO.

There is one problem with this.
The bottom of the knife.
My Dad is a knife enthusiast and he says if this knife was used it a war, it would be EXTREMELY bulky due to the
plate on the bottom.
That was my Dad's constructive critism.

I did slime it out, but I would not have thought of that.


EDIT:
I have it fully in-game (I think) I have not tested it yet.
It only has a test script so I can see if the model looks good and if it is held right in the hand.

It is in-game now, the only problem is that you can only see a little bit of the model, not the blade or the handle O_o
Anyone know how to fix  this?
I can easily go back and try to fix it I have tried already.

You didn't export the model correctly.

I figured that, but what did I do wrong I followed a tuturial.
