Bahro Papercraft 3D model file

Post by Spinky »

Hi guys.

I am trying to create a bahro papercraft but am having some difficulty. I have a program called pepakura that will take a 3D model file and create a pattern. My problem is though that I need to first open the model in blender so that i can re-save it in a different format. Where is the file for the bahro and how can i open it with blender? I would prefer to use the model from Myst 5 but i could use the one from MOUL.

Card stock model's?? Geez I'v build everything from the Tower's of London and the Stonehenge to the starship from Startrek voyager. including three versions of the Haunted House from Disneyland/world.
A card stock Bahro would be great, or a Cardstock Relto island would be interesting too, their is literally tons of inspiration that can be derived from the Myst series, Good luck.

Sounds like a really funny project - please post pictures if you do any kind of realization :)

I've made a paper Zandi and D'ni goggles. Also, one of the Teledahn levers. Pepakura's a pretty good program. I got the models by importing the models using PyPRP. Info about how to import can be found on the wiki. Since you can't import MOUL or M5 with PyPRP, I recommend importing after using something like Drizzle to convert the file types to Uru Complete Chronicles or Uru Prime.
Currently getting some ink on my hands over at the Guild Of Ink-Makers (PyPRP2).

Ok, I tried using pyPRP to open the MOULagain file, but if fails saying that there was an error with the python script. Am i doing something wrong? I am using Blender 2.45 and pyPRP Age Importer on OS X.

EDIT: I guess I had better read better, it won't do Myst 5 or MOUL. I'll try drizzle. Thanks :D

If you look for it, there are some plug-ins for blender that generate paper-craft models from 3d files.

They work best with low-poly models, though.

It is floating under the floor.

There's also a bahro model located in the Neighborhood (the one that pops up near the hood-instance Ae'gura stone), once you convert the MOUL data over. Look around for something mentioning a bahro pillar.

I know this thread is ancient now, but I would really like to get a papercraft model of a bahro made. How do I go about importing the bahro 3d model into blender?
