How to install
-
Download zip file from the latest release (don't unzip!)
-
Open Blender, go to Edit -> Preferences
-
Go to Addons

Select zip file downloaded in step 1.
-
Done, the addon is accessible here:
Panel elements
- A - label which informs about ongoing operations (downloading models, icons, extracting zip archives, etc)
- B - cache dir is a directory where models and icons are cached, so that those assets are downloaded only once, addon won't start as long as the field is empty
- C - platform: currently selected gaming platform
- D - letter: letters available for current platform
- E - game: games available for current letter
- F - sections: sections available for current game
- G - name: 3D models available for current game
- H - files: list importable 3D model files (empty if model hasn't been downloaded yet)
- I - download button: click to download current model, does nothing if model is already downloaded
- H - import: imports the file selected in H combobox, does nothing if model is not downloaded
Usage
Addon requires Internet connection to work, since all fields are filled dynamically from the site. Wait until all fields fill by themselves, select platform, letter, game, section, model, download it and hit import.
Addon uses multithreading, so Blender does not freeze during downloading assets and querying models-resource
site
Uninstalling
- Open Blender, go to
Edit -> Preferences

Models Resource Importer
