exporting .prefab file into blender

hey, im trying to export a model into blender from unity. i dont want the whole scene, nor the whole asset. i have the model saved as a .prefab file and i need to know how to export it from unity as a .fbx or .blend or even just .obj file so i can open it to work on it in blender. im new to both of these softwares so a dumbed down explanation would be great, even better if you can include pictures <<;

 

You won't have much luck with *.prefab -- it's very specific to Unity and contains no geometry data by itself, it only holds references (by id) to the model & materials used.

Here's what you can do:

1) Find the model(s) used in the prefab. For example, by selecting the prefab (or prefab instance in the scene) and hunting for "Mesh Filter" components in it.

In the screenshot below, you can see a "Mesh Filter" that references the mesh "Floor". Click on that reference and the "Project" window should navigate straight to the model that mesh comes from.



2) Import the model you found in step 1 into Blender.

Most likely, the model is an .fbx file and you'll have to import it into Blender. This is done by creating a new Blender scene and selecting File -> Import -> FBX from within Blender.

 

Thanks....this worked for me

 

A more modern version can be using the fbx exporter, Go to WIndow > Package manager > Unity Regitsry > Search fbx exporter download it and right click on the model you want to export select the format (blender doesnt support ascii so binary would be better) and choose the path

 

i did all of that but it doesnt show up

 

big thanks for you pal, thank you so much,, now i know what actual size of "sedan" from unturned, so i can make it in blender and make my own with same size,, thank you so much
