Export Clonk

Export a new Clonk

Preparation

  • Install Blender
  • Download and unzip the Clonk file
  • Open the clonk.blend file
  • Click on "Reload trusted" to

Install Blender

The Clonk has been modeled in Blender, so you also need Blender to export a new Clonk. Blender is an open source software, so you can just install it from their homepage: https://www.blender.org/

Download the Clonk file

Get the Clonk file from http://www.renderclonks.de/files/new_clonk.zip. Download it and unzip it.

Open the clonk.blend file

The clonk.blend file is the file that contains the Clonk model and has already all needed scripts installed.

Start the script

First of all, you have to click the "Reload trusted" button. The file is configured to startup the exporter's interface script directly on the start, but as Blender wants to protect its users from starting scripts they are not aware about, you have to tell Blender, that you trust the script.

Structure of the Blender File

The Blender file has different layers that contain different parts of the setup.

Each of the layers can be selected by clicking on the button. When holding SHIFT while clicking, multiple layers can be selected at the same time.

The layers contain:

1. the adventurer clonk mesh

2. the steampunk clonk mesh

3. the alchemist clonk mesh

4. the farmer clonk mesh

10. some helper meshes (do not edit)

second row:

11. the CONTROL_body armature to control the clonk

13. some helper tools (shovel, pickaxe, etc.)

15. more helper tools (boompack, shield, etc.)

16. the Armature armature that is directly connected with the clonk

17.-20. helper stuff (do not edit)
