getting Carolina.blend convert into vdrift

[NaN]

Hi,

I am also new to vdrift and haven't created a track yet.

The export-all-joe-0.3.py script exports your blend file in joe fileformat. You should get at least an joe file and a list.txt. If not there is something wrong with your track.
Open CarolinaMP.blend in blender. Select the track mesh. Export joe. Select "Export only the selected object". You should get a joe and a list file.
Exporting all(without selecting "Export only the selected object") worked for me after uv-mapping the mesh and applying a texture to it. I might post a small tutorial if you're interested.

I also think you need to write track.txt by yourself.
You might use this one for testing(parkinglot):

Code:

cull faces = on
non-treaded friction coefficient = 1.000000
treaded friction coefficient = 0.900000
lap sequences = 0
start position 0 = 7.524787,2.211630,-5.473845
start orientation-xyz 0 = -0.017149,0.907452,0.037216
start orientation-w 0 = 0.418152

I guess lap sequences are used for auto tracing?

You might want to change "start position 0" to a position on your track. (In blender place a cube somewhere on your track an read its position(press N Key))

The "start orientation 0" is a quaternion. It describes the orientation of the camera/car on the track(I guess). The bad thing is, in blender the orientation is shown in X,Y,Z-Axis rotation angles. I think the rotation sequence is X, Y, Z. So RotX is φ, RotY is θ, RotZ is ψ. The quaternion is:


The road.trk is generated by the Track editor. It defines the road surface for the track ie the bezier patches which you have traced in the Track editor.
