I feel this thread deserves a spot in the WIKI. Or at least a sticky.

4- does somebody want to teach me MAX?


1- No idea.
2- No idea.
3- Check the plugin readme, it'll do practically all POF data.
4- Not me.

:p

As for the distortions, if you can get a good picture of one I could try to check it out - but since there's only one set of normals for the model, and you seem to imply that the main shading works fine, I have no idea about what it might be.

Not yet, because the file format changes made by the SCP people were not documented. I'll be looking into the file loading code myself, though, and it'll be added.

By the way, I think I have fixed the annoying bug of the message while loading MAX, can anyone confirm this? Here's the updated version (same address, new file):

Your SDK was a great help, but I realized it would be a lot easier to export the data directly from MAX than to make a MAX file format loader... Sorry for that, but you can be assured that the work on the PofCS plugin SDK was not for nothing...

PCS still kicks major ass. If it wasn't for PCS Iwould have never been able to get all those Trek ships to Freespace (as people actually use them :p)  I still need PCS to create stuff like glowpoints, turretand FP normals, craft mass. In my opinion it was TS that made modding life suck, well at least for me. 3dsmax will make modding much smoother.

Did you try loading it through the Plugin Manager? It's on the "Customize" menu, select "pofexp.dle" and load it (through the right-mouse-button menu).

I loaded it on my version of MAX without problems, then closed MAX and reopened it and didn't get the Duplicate ID error that was happening before... If you're getting an error other than the Duplicate ID one, try using the MAX 4 plugin instead of the MAX 5 one.

I suppose you tried using the MAX 4 version and it didn't work either?

Any chance of getting a version of this for 3DSMax R3 ?
