Oh, that's harder. You'll have to find someone with an old version of the thing (like myself).

I got to impress the ladies at the zoo by petting one of them. Thos are just tooooo darn cute!!!

as for the links, Kazans PCS does include a POF to COB converter, but I don't like it. I remember there was a little proggy around once, named POF2COB or something that converter POF to COBs, surprisingly, and flipped all the normals in the process. I'd rather reflip the normals than sort out the lods I need from a bunch of meshes and lights.

Well, you asked explicitly for PCS so... :p

I have something called Pof2Cob 0.9 here (the one made by the Segeltuch guy), which I think does flip the normals and mirror the ships around as you said.

The program you're talkin about - is it a DOS application?

Title: Must find stuff!
Post by: CP5670 on December 30, 2002, 10:58:38 am

there are windows shells for all of the cob/pof converters out there; don't know why people still use the dos ones... :p :D

And you can as well steal that cute snake from the zoo. Just hide it in pocket until you're out. If the zoo doesen't have those beeping security gates that is... :p

oh I thought you asked him. :p Yes, this thing is a windows one; actually, this particular one does not have an original DOS version like most of the others do. (it's the one that says "wouldn't it be neat if there was a picture here?" and so on)

yet another request:

the Stop font.

oh yes, why does Max 5 seem to **** up ther textures of 3ds models I just converted from COB. works fine with earlier conversions, but not with the news one. It just repeats the same ugly texture all over the ship. :wtf:

Title: Must find stuff!
Post by: Stunaep on December 30, 2002, 01:14:06 pm

here... POF2COB

The stop font comes with Office 2000

*stares Stunaep*

and what's wrong with those models?

For some reason after converting the models with Deep Exploration all textures end up replaced by one stupid Orion texture.

BTW, where should I put the textures for Deep Exploration? So it would convert them too.

the same folder as in the files you wish to convert. You should be given a dialog box.

Hmmm, the last time I did this, DE didn't convert them though they were in the same folder.

Don't know about you guys, but I prefer 3DX over DX because... well, it ran faster. I tend to use lots of old programs nowadays (imaging suites, specifically) because my P3-500 is unbearably slow with the new gear.

I'd probably use 3DX too but unfortunately I had to format my C drive a while ago and lost it. And now they have replaced it with DX...

Post by: Styxx on December 31, 2002, 05:39:29 am

There's also the fact that older versions of 3DX don't expire...

The stop font? I'm surprised at you guys, this link usually comes up after only a few posts...

I've got an installer for an old version of 3DX, and a reg so it works. Think anyone would mind if I put it up on the 'net?
