Hey Y'all havn't been that active recently, have been busy.
Glad some people here found this useful.
@ Creatorcookie
No mdlscale does not have to be at 2000.
It can be any size/scale/number you want.
@Cankinder
Any ideas for a 'harder' tutorial?
I'm open to suggestions.
Take care.

Okay, I talked to Offtools about this on his cell-shaded tutorial, but can you make an animation tutorial?
I'm specifically looking towards animated md3s, like the ogre, because I've been thinking about making a character.

If by addons you mean the python scripts (.py files), where they go all depends on what operating system you're using.
First make sure you have python installed http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6.5/
Also make sure blender finds your python installation. It will say so in the console window that opens with blender.
Make sure you can see hidden files/folders
Paths for your OS;
XP:
C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender/.blender/scripts
or
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts
Vista:
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\.blender\scripts
Windows 7:
Same as Vista (i think)
Ubuntu/Linux variants:
/home/user/.blender/scripts

ok, but I have a 64 bit system, so I have the 64 bit program, and that is only the zip file..........


EDIT:I put the files in the folder and the program won't export in md3 yet

@pizza
What version of blender are you using? On my computer (also 64 bit) blender 2.5 wont understand that i have python installed... So I use 2.49b instead and it works fine
