Tabletop Simulator + Wh40k

[darleth]

With this new software, tabletop simulator, you could play any board game, including wh40k.

So I want to try to export models from DoW 2 to Tabletop Simulator, but I new in 3D so could any one help me?

I know I need:
1) .OBJ file (with model)
2) .JPG texture file (with texture)

It is possible? Can I export models from DoW to .obj file?

Please any tutorial or any help...

Thanks a lot.

Interesting. If someone pulls of a decent 40k module for that, I'm sold. I mean, there's VASSAL for that already, but it's convoluted mess to use, does nothing to speed up list building / deploying / playing, so it's kinda pointless in the end to me.

Not sure if TTS can do something about that, I'll give it a look. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

Although unfortunately I don't think I can be of any help here, some people working on ELITE definitely should be able to help.

without even looking at it i suspect it will be a little more complicated than you think because you're going to have to pose the models first. that said, you could create a hell of a lot of variety really fast once you got a pipeline down.

So it's possible....What I need?
