CONVERTING 3D FILES

WRITTEN BY NAGILIANT

Hello everyone, and welcome to our tutorial on how to convert League of Legends’ .skn and .skl files to gltf for easier use. The program that we use on RuneForge is by Crauzer–called LoL2gltf

When installing the program, make sure that you have the latest release (Currently using Pre-Release Version) installed, you can confirm as such on github:

Where you install the program by downloading the LoL2gltf.CLI and LoL2gltf .zip files.

INSTALL

When opening the .zip files, please extract them into a relevant folder that you will be working from.

1. INSTALLING

Once you have extracted the files, simply open the LoL2gltf application file where you can then select the files for which model you wish to convert to .gltf. To access the files you will be converting, you need to have used Obsidian to extract the required files.

Once you have added both the .skl and .skn files of the model you wish to convert, then there will be a list of textures that the model uses that you can find in your extracted files to add to the .gltf file that will be converted. Once you have added both the .skl and .skn files of the model you wish to convert, then there will be a list of textures that the model uses that you can find in your extracted files to add to the .gltf file that will be converted.

2. CONVERT .SKN/.SKL TO GLTF

Once you have finished editing your 3D models on your preferred 3D editing program and wish to convert it back to .skn and .skl to use for League, simply open your Command Prompt program and do the following:

Once in the CMD (Command Prompt) program, what you do is find your LoL2gltf.CLI file and copy over the file path into the program. You can also Drag and Drop it into the CMD where the path will automatically be put.

The whole line should look at follows “LoL2gltf.CLI File path” gltf2skn -g “GLTF File Path” -m “Filepath of what you want the .skn/.skl files to be named and where they will be put”

For example, it should look similar to this:

From there on, once everything has been put in correctly, then the .skn and .skl files of the 3D model will be made as you have specified.

And that’s all for how to convert .skn and .skl files to .gltf and how to convert .gltf to .skn and .skl!

3. CONVERT GLTF TO .SKN/.SKL

This is all for our tutorial on how to convert 3D files to .gltf and back using LoL2gltf! We sincerely hope that you will join our community and that we get to see what you make!
