I created youtube site where I uploaded some Blender tutorials.
That lighthmapping vid shows how to export to Ogre .mesh format.
I tried give some advise (hotkeys) but you still need at least know the basics of Blender to complete these.

Now I have uploaded some 3dsmax tutorials too, and using ogremax.

Nice tutorials. It's looking awesome, when a pro user do something so quickly. :D
I know some basics of Blender, but it's hard to understand how you do it.

For further tutorials it would be great, when you use a higher video resulution. Youtube supports even FullHD videos. If needed, the viewer can switch to a smaller resolution. A high resolution is needed to read the tiny menus.

Additionally you could add comments to your videos and say what you are doing. Even if your english is not so good - this could help to understand.

Forum threads are getting old and will be forgotten. A very good place for presenting is the Ogre wiki!
When you edit a page, there is a button for "youtube". After pushing there comes a dialog, which make it easy to embedd videos into the Ogre wiki. (Maybe you need to switch to the adwanced edit mode to see the youtube button.)
For example look to the Hydrax wiki page - there I embedded a youtube video.

Related to tutorial Creating a simple scene with Blender - it would be nice when you add a second video, which shows an Ogre application with the created scene. I would like to see how it looks, when you run inside of this created scene.


By the way - I'm thinking about to create scenes by Blender. But I would need to add objects with "user data". For example an object with informations like "type=sonarSensor, name=vehicle1Sidescan1".
Is this possible?

Ok, to support your work, I created a new wiki page and embedded your 4 videos :)

Sorry about that, when using blender, I use lot of hotkeys :)

These resolutions are over 1000*something and packed to mpeg4 format, open in fullscreen, then you can see something. My internet connection is so slow so i must pack these quite a lot, it takes ages already to upload with this quality :)


Additionally you could add comments to your videos and say what you are doing. Even if your english is not so good - this could help to understand.

This i might do, when i have some time :) and of course if something to want to know, just ask.

I dont think blender's exporter exports userdata info, but i think ogremax does.

Even in fullscreen mode it's not looking clear. The resolution or the compression was to hard.
But I can understand the problem with low upload rated. :cry:
