I am using triangles only This is a mistake of the original author and it is not known whether he will fix it. I checked this build again on 3ds max 2020.3. Import (sort of) is not bad, but the export takes a terribly long time and is completely wrong. The place of export of the character, I just got an "inflatable doll" which is tied to the main bone of the model and that's it.

ohtattoome Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Hey all, very new to this and with zero experience regarding modelling. I'm trying to modify some clothing items for Franklin to MP male using 3ds max 2021. I used a video tutorial, and everything worked well, however once I import the model back into GTA, it appears backwards on my character, and without movement. I haven't any clue as to how to fix this, and when I've asked other people who create models, I'm told to downgrade to the 2017 version of 3ds max because the new version 'has issues'. I'm on the free trial of the program, which won't allow you to download anything earlier than the 2018 version, and purchasing the 2017 one isn't really plausible for me. I'm going to follow what another poster said earlier, about rotating it 180, and hope that works. Figured I'll post anyway just in case. Any ideas? Keep in mind, I am a potato who hasn't even looked at this program until a week ago.

julionib Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 TEMP FREEZE FIX ok, so, i had this "freezing" issue too in my 3ds Max 2020, i just installed the freeze fix but the problem still, but, since the first time i had this issue i accidentally found a tricky way to temporary fix it, temporary because when you reopen 3ds max you need to do the "fix" again, this is what i do: -Open 3ds max and start GimsEVO for GTA 5 (Here it loads fine and fast) -Import your models or open your project that have something ready to be exported, its good use a simple thing, complex entities (poly count) would take longer in next step -Click to Export in GimsEVO and set the destination folder to proceed clicking in "Select Folder" in the dialog box -Now it will freeze for some time (the freeze issue), after it comes back i cancel the export clicking in the Back arrow icon -Now with nothing selected in the scene, i click in "Create object" -(wait freeze ends) Now click in "Collisions" -(wait freeze ends) Now click in "Mesh: Modifier" -(wait freeze ends) You should now see a error message in GimsEVO because nothing was selected in scene, now click in the back arrow icon until you get back to main GimsEVO menu Done, now if you try to Export something it will be fast as expected, also the Create button wont have the freeze anymore Seems that when this error is caused by our mistake after trying to export something, the freeze bug is gone. It's odd and tricky but works. Retired 1 Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/929447-gta-v-gims-for-3dsmax-2017-2020/page/5/#findComment-1071324756 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she still somehow copes with the import of models, then completely broken mods with the above error are exported. The original author doesn't give a damn about the update.

RokkuDayo Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 For some reason, the latest version of this updated script messes up skinned meshes. As shown in the image below, the default export options set the mesh file tags to "Skinned = False" by default, the bone count is also set to 0 no matter what and the vertex definition is also not the one used for skinned meshes. This mesh file ended up coming out 3 megabytes lighter than the one using the old exporter, probably because weighting data is missing. Also, the vertice count triples because the exporter splits all the faces based on the edges or something like that, I have no idea why this is done as Zmodeler doesn't need to do that, but if that could be somehow disabled it'd make ped modding with GIMS Evo a fully viable option now that we can make our own .YFT skeletons with CodeWalker. Exporting with the first version of this updated script seems to be working fine though the weighting issues, mostly present on the facial bones, that have been pestering the whole ped porting thing for years is still present, the limit for bone weight link in the game's models is 4 and I made sure that all bones are under this constraint but it still happens so it could be related to the edge splitting function or something else, I just know that this is currently the biggest issue when it comes to porting peds with GIMS Evo from all the testing I've been doing since mid-2019.

MARK2580 Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) @linkinforever There is a bug in your version, for some reason the lines are commented out that the weight of the model was NOT saved during export (gta v), and this version is not compatible with old assemblies.

lpgunit Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Is it just me or does anyone know of a ped shader that works with overlapping UVs? I am having issues trying to port a model to the game and when I use "ped" the normals are messed up: I could use ped_hair_cutout_alpha as what I've seen with some models, but I doubt it would be ideal especially with the checkerboarding artefacts.
