PyPRP

PyPRP is a free, open source plugin for Blender that exports ages for old versions of Uru (such as Uru: Ages Beyond Myst and Uru: Complete Chronicles). It was originally written by Almlys as part of the Alcugs project.

Getting PyPRP

Main Article: Installing PyPRP

You may download the latest stable version (v1.6.1) of PyPRP from the Guild of Writers, or you can always download an older version at your discretion. We recommend using the latest version because some of the older ones are plagued with bugs--our release quality has improved significantly over time. You will appreciate the difference.

You will also need the Offline KI to be able to test your age in-game.
