If you need help installing ANYTHING, you probably wont be able to make add-ons anyways. :/

Well I've looked everywhere. Every single place tells me to put the exporter into .blender --> scripts but the .blender doesn't even exist in my folder. How the hell am I supposed to put it into something that doesn't exist? I'm 99% sure that making the folder won't do anything, because it's supposed to already be there. Are there any alternate names?

I can't get the trans working like your santa mech,can you give me a .blend file of how to set it up?

well try making it anyways, or reinstall it. I don't know what else to do.

in the materials tab of your exporter choose your texture and enable translucency, and additive. Make your texture black for best results.

oh wow, i just found a much faster way to fix lighting problems. Instead of resetting the scale in object mode and moving it back in edit mode, or making a cube and then joining your mesh with the cube, just select your object and press Ctrl A, then apply scale and rotation. I dunno if anybody else knew but I'm just posting this.

if you want to rename your animation click the box that says Action, and type whatever you want.

Uh i see a action box and when i click it it has no effect at all, Advice?

*Edit* i figured it out, its inside the movement editer not the export popup just saying might want to mention that.

I've got a bit of a problem with the exporter. I have the textures set right, the armatures set and named right, the empties named correctly, parenting is exactly how you said... But the game still crashes when I use the model. I think it's a problem with Blender 64bit and my exporter made for the 32 bit version (?). Your link doesn't work, as well as all the ones on the blender website.

Got any ideas?

Hooray! I figured out what caused my problems with colourshifting. All I need to do is to simply separate parts that I don't want to be affected by colourshifting!

Might be a problem with your collision box not named or parented right. Although if it's a weapon you don't need a collision box. I googled and found some dts exporter here, maybe it'll work. http://www.jsgreenawalt.com/Blender-DTS-Exporter/download.html
