Yes

 

I take it, you haven't read the tut, or looked into the models folder, hmm ?

Eh tut being tutorial, models folder though? Where?

Unless Rebellion is capable of using the Maya format files, its useless, as Maya Evaluation version only saves in Maya files. ( without Evaluation written all over the model )

Great work The_Mask. Your name and description length tool is sweet to. Thanks man.

Elvis: look at the first page of this very thread, I wrote it down there

 

Venix: Sorry, Rebellion uses the .x file-format, or DirectX file format. The extension's .x .I found max plugs on the MS-Directx site, but the thing it exported was plain white, not the colors I applied to it earlier

 

Markaine: Live to serve, I do The name-length tool worked for you ? Great !

Evaders, has it finally worked on your machine as well ? When you stopped writing I figured it must've worked, or you just got bored

I believe Cinema 4D exports to .X format. If anyone wants a copy, I have it.

I can export to X.

 

 

( BTW, Hastings ? That you ? The one i know i mean ? )

Which Hastings do you know? If you are referring to a real life friend I am not him.

I'm referring to a person i know from the Combine, who goes by the name of, well, Hastings

I thought it was still impossible to add models or change them etc...plus wasnt their a model editor in the works a long long long time ago in a galaxy far far away?

Well there seem to be 2 model editors now..

 

The question is (stil unanswered) which one is easier to use and/or better, and WHERE CAN WE DOWNLOAD IT? (May I suggest you submit them to the downloads section? )

Hey Venix, I don't play at the Combine so I'm not the guy you know. And yes, I've also heard lots of talk about these so called model editors. Wasn't one guy developing one in Java?

Will there eventually be a model editor that's as easy to use as Rebed is? Will we be able to download a ship model the same way we download cards now, and be able to replace any ship we want to in the game? Right now I'd be happy just to be able to move the existing models around. Maybe be able to let the rebels begin the game with a Neb B, or a Mon Cal. What about a fix for the starfighter bug?

Wow. Ando back here too!

 

What starfighter bug you're talking about?

 

For that guy who needed to transfer files with a floppy disk: use a program like AxMan to cut the file in pieces and transport it!

The only starfighter bug in the game. The one that makes the game crash if you have rebel and/or imp fighters on both sides. This crash only happens in the tactical battles. I'd like to see a warlords TC sometime (when we have a model editor) where both sides can use TIE's. And why is my post count so low? Not that I've ever been worried about rank or anything.

Sad news everyone,

 

-I sought out an old buddy with lightwave, but it can't import .3ds

-I read that Cinema4D exports only text-based .x files, Rebellion needs

binary (compressed, or uncompressed) .x files. I think I forgot that in

my tut.

 

Venix, you don't happen to know a way around the not-solid problem ? Some button saying something like : "make it one solid block that won't be transparent"

Mask, this is the way to solve your problem:

Use your mouse and click on 'File'. Then go down to the button 'make it one solid block that won't be transparent''. Click on this one, and an confirmation button will apear saying: 'Are your sure to make it one solid block that won't be transparent?' And answer 'Yes'. Easy

 

 

But what about the starfighter bug?

TK421,

 

The starfighter bug is cured by penicillin, lots of rest and plenty of fluids!

 

What starfighter bug?

Thanx TK, it was right before my nose all the time... tsts.... getting old

 

Btw: I checked out Maya PLE from the third UT2k3 cd (after I finished Malcom ) and it also passes out. It exports models, that will be invisible in Rebellion. Although that could be a tactical advantage

YES BUT ARE GOING TO HAVE ONE TO DOWNLOAD ?!?

(that i can actually use)

In Lightwave, the non solid thing is fixed by turning the poly thats missing around by pressing F.

 

Lightwave does import 3ds, it just needs a plugin.

 

Plus i have Deep Exploration, which exports and imports every known image (2d and 3d) file ( no, not Max and Lws, cos they're scenes, not objects )

Okay so is there a link to anywhere that i can get it from?

Not legally, no.

What about buying it? Or is it not available for public use?
