Title: Won't convert.. ARGH!
Post by: TrashMan on June 01, 2003, 07:17:41 am

I just can't convert the scn...PCS chrashes (I have the newest version..)
Here's the model:
(http://www.inet.hr/~tstanici/ShivAB-Dark.jpg)

Anyone want to take a look at the scn?

EDIT: This is an older pic... the current version has 4 BIG turrets, 20 large ones and 30 small ones... and the base is about 40klicks long..

Yes you can.

That said have you tried saving it as a cob and converting that instead? PCS treats the two formats slightly differently.

Yeah right.............:rolleyes:



Who said it is a PCS error, it can also be a error in the mesh or a curupted *.cob or *.scn file.

Well not corrupted as such but if you made a small error early on all the later versions would also have it.

Have you tried converting the .cob like I suggested?

Is that supposed to be Shivan? Coz it don't look it... Far more terran like that one. If it is supposed to b shivan you'd probably want to investigate the possibility of the addition of some spiky shivan details, maybe a retexture too...

That's an old pic...it's spikey..and BIG...:D
What was the problem exactly FT?

It had only about 3000 polys and was 40km long? That shouldn't have been a proble...

EDIT:Some stuff will be put for download...:D
