I use Blender for 3D, it's free and very powerfull...
I quite like it...

yes a blender user more

i bought the book. Its a great book, and gets you started. Blender is a little frustration for beginners, because a lot of functions is hidden.
I think there is an online guide. But if you are lost about 3d and 3d with blender, the book is great. But blender hasnt been free. Actually it was a quite expensive package, until it was bought free.
but now its free for commercial and uncommercial use.
I just need to learn how to use it with PB. How i can export materials and textures so PB can render a model. Anyone knows how to do that? num3?

but yes, blender is truly amazing. Also the board at elysiun.com (blender community) has a hell lot of users (7428) and is very active.

Well, I supose the blender format will be described somewhere, just need some info about this and the PB mesh file, and it shouldn't be too difficult to make a file format converter

there is a blender export script to ogre XML, and then ogre has made a tool to convert ogre XML to meshes. But you need and old version of the converter, because PB's ogre is old.
But anyway, i dont know how to use 3d with PB.

Well, Blender has it's own game engine.

I've not looked at it, but i think it uses scripting to work...

i know it has it's own engine. But it isnt described in the book. you need to buy the "blender game engine guide". But i would like to use blender with other software.
