Rented 3,446 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Okay so I don't know if you guys(yes there's two of you who could have replied) have either not seen my post was too busy with fristyminator's issue did not bother to(yes sorry its a bit long) or could not view the video or just realized that the I/O has an issue that for some reason messes up the hierarchies(well it did on one occasion but I managed to find its cause) If you can't view the video, or have any of the mentioned issues, please tell me as I can not do anything due this issue. Haha Sorry bro! maybe i could help with the issue? Maybe post a picture of your heehaarchy ? By the video it seems like you have the same issue as me. You have to edit the index ID's manually in 3DS object props for each item. Shown in OpenIV's Resource Explorer. ( CTRL+R and click your way to [ drawable - skeleton - bones ] and name the dummies in 3dsmax ( Object Properties - User Defined ) with the correct BoneIndex, BoneID and MirrorID relative to the list in OpenIV https://www.dropbox.com/s/2jqpmtpk7stpuwr/Screenshot%202014-11-20%2000.26.38.png?dl=0 Oh shoot, I just briefly read your issue and I thought you have problems with character models, my apologies. Hope you also get your issues solved Now i just have to try to learn how to properly set materials they can be a biii*ch No for char models i still use GIMS Yes thanks it worked... The only thing I can't do with materials is UV Map them as the picture is not actually linked to it, only its name. No problem at all just apply the UV mapping, and in the Mapping window, press the [ CheckerPattern ( Checker ) ] in the top right corner and press Pick Texture. Choose the texture you're using for the object you are mapping, and you're good to go mapping your textures properly https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/47832794/Image1.png Happy with my result so far https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/47832794/SideBak.png Everything exporting properly, but i really hope there will be a fix for the ID issues when removing or adding object dummies Wow that's quiet nice, did you make that from scratch?

Wish i could say so But i've just added new stuff like the rear Hänsch led housing, the front hella-light holder w/ led housing and redone alot on the model itself. It was rather incomplete The devil is in the details, so i'll keep on adding and removing till i reach the Norwegian look im after This is how it looked from the start https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdHAHFLhMD4 Link to post Share on other sites
kosseboy 0 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) i installed this like read me file said, i went and raised the ram to 512 mb and switched to png after i try whit out first, still it says it dont have proper import module in 3ds max 2015. where i can get 2012 version? if that is the problem, this can be frustrating as every info is scattered/dated and answers can made several days later. all i want is giant size player model as 4-5 story´s high and proportionally wide, the texture can be distorted as long the skeleton has normal movement, i was trying to make giant robot from objects in map whit snt 6.5.

Firstyminator 2 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Herro again Just one curios question The model is now working as i wanted. Fixed the minor issues with general poking into the other models so im almost there! Only thing left is that the Front indicators is lit all the time. Any particular reason why this could be? It's mapped with same texture as the rear ones which works perfectly. And they got the default dummies, only reoriented from the original indicatorlights that was in the lower front part of the chassis. I detached two parts from the chassis, and made them indicator_lf and *_rf , but still they are lit all the time. Edited November 26, 2014 by Firstyminator Link to post Share on other sites
Firstyminator 2 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 (edited) Allright. Sorted out the lights issues by seeking out any changes. I found that the vertex Alpha channel has to be different for each light After about 20 hours of exploring Edited December 2, 2014 by Firstyminator Link to post Share on other sites
Firstyminator 2 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 As there is no option to import the wft into zmodeler after export in OFIO, are there any guide how to set up multiple liveries on a vehicle ? I've tried to use same settings as the default vehicles, with paint2 and paint3, but still ingame it will not show multiple liveries on my model. Link to post Share on other sites
MIXAZZZ 389 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Use for 'liveries' 2nd UV channel to your model. Edited December 7, 2014 by MIXAZZZ Firstyminator 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Firstyminator 2 Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 (edited) Use for 'liveries' 2nd UV channel to your model. Hey thanks! Trying it right now. Can i do this for materials with Paint1 ? or do i have to use Paint2 or 3 for this to work ? Doing this with UVW Mapping, and selecting Move to Channel 2, caused the game to crash upon loading hmm Edited December 7, 2014 by Firstyminator Link to post Share on other sites

Use shader setting from original model.

NVT90 41 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Is there any ways to disable the dynamic shadows casted by the car's headlights on Patch 7 ? Because as you guys can notice, on Patch 7, the dynamic shadows come from street lamps and other wall lights are flickering very much at night. I discover that bug cause by the dynamic shadows come from car's headlights. I have some test. 1. At night time, disable the cars by using the Trainer and that bug is gone, the dynamic shadows come from street lamps and other wall lights work fine. 2. Set car.headlight.intensity in the visualSettings.dat to 0.00, this solution work too but you won't be satisfied with those cars not have the headlights. So, any suggestion ?

MrSmarter22 34 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Still same problem, although I have selected all the bone in the hierarchy view, it still gives me the same error.

Jestic 2,515 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 How do i fix these errors? 1st: Go to Customize > Preferences... > MAXScript and under Memory change MBytes to 256 or higher. 2nd: Looks like you put (some) files in the wrong location. Make sure you put the folder 'ofio' within the folder 'scripts'. So, mine for example is: C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2013\scripts\ofio Link to post Share on other sites
