It's pretty self-explanatory.  In order to improve the Freespace 2 Source Code, I want to obtain the source code for MODELVIEW32.  If you support me, reply with [some] message.

:wtf:Have you asked the creator for the proggy? It says in the program that he'll help you/give you the code.

EDIT: How does the source for MODELVIEW32 help with the SCP.

[Bobboau]

becase it is used to veiw and edit models, wich we currently can't realy do with new data types, like glow points,
if he doesn't want to do the stuff himself it would be nice to have the ability to do it our selves

[Solatar]

Well, e-mail the guy who wrote the program. He should give you the source code. It says so in one of the startup help hints.

[RandomTiger]

May not be able to release the code for legal reasons.

[Solatar]

Why not? It's his program? Heiko Herrman I think.

[Bobboau]

but not all his stuff

[Solatar]

Oh, well, I'll sign:nervous:

Why dont you send him an e-mail first?

The source code for PCS is available via CVS, and the latest version of PCS is supposed to include support for glowpoints.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/alliance

With the source code for POFView available, I think combining the two to make a complete replacement for ModelView32 would be a good idea. (And ModelView32 I believe is Visual Basic so if you don't have that, you may not be able to do anything with it.)

[EdrickV]

Ok, these error messages (and this resulting double post) are getting annoying.

[Kazan]

the POFCS CVS has a version of PCS with properly working GLOW support, and the dots even show up in the preview renderer, albeight primative representations

[Solatar]

I always hated PCS. It was always crashing, and the controls were too hard to use.

[Kazan]

cry about it why dont you - you should have come on here and given me bug reports while it was my main coding project, you should also keep to date on the version [althought the latest is in CVS and im not making a build until i replace the GLUT with SDL and fix taht damn renderer memory leak]

[Solatar]

I didn't say anything 'cause loads of people were already saying what I wanted to address. To many people saying the same thing in terms of errors isn't a good thing usually.

Back on topic, does anybody want to get the source for ModelView32?

Yes.

Yes.

Yes to what? My first, or second paragraph?

[Galemp]

Yes, we want the Modelview source so we can integrate glow point editing, thrusters, dockpoints, paths, and eyepoints. Then we can further integrate PCS into Modelview, including POF2COB and COB2POF, so we will have one fully functional WYSIWYG POF editor.

Both.

An all in one tool for making ships. Maybe somebody who has too much free time could make a real constructor. You could make a .pof, then skin it, and add everything. All in one tool.
