onclsam13, check you MAXScript Listener because you may have something like this:

 

ERROR: polygon <number> must be based on 3 or 4 verts

yes I saw this message.

 

"ERROR: polygon <number> must be based on 3 or 4 verts"

onclsam13, Okay, openFomrats show you error because in MAXScript Listener because you see this:

"ERROR: polygon <number> must be based on 3 or 4 verts"

You need make all polygons 3 or 4 verts. But you have some non 3/4 verts polygons and GIMS can't export it because game collisions can be made only from 3/4 verts polygons.

 

Why does GIMS exports OBD instead of OBN? I want to choose which one to export.

Your dummy scene hierarchy is wrong. Re-create it.

If I understand correctly, your collisoion object must have name: node. If you have different name than node, GIMS will export your coll to OBD file.

The first way is to slice non-standart polys.

*Find these polys(by their ID in the error message)

*Select the "Cut" tool and slice the poly until it will contain maximum of 4 vertices.

 

The second(not so good) way is to convert ALL polys to triangles:

*Convert to editable mesh

*Select all vertices and click on "Break" button in the "editable mesh" rollout

*Convert back to editable poly

*Weld all vertices with smth about 0,001 precision

This way is good too but convert it to Editable Poly yet and use weld. Works very good without any errors. smile.gif

But you'll get triangles instead of polygons, which're better for the game.
