The horse was a bit peeved, though.

It's not dead, just sleeping.



The maggots are all fake.



No, the leg is not being kept clean to feed PCS2...

If you can see the Fnords, they won't eat you.

Kazan did you do any changes to the cob->pof importer? 1.3.42 release 71  (4-3-2004) build successfully converts a cob file while the newer ones have stack errors. If nothing else I just convert with the old one, save as a temp.pof file and import glow/etc settings with the new one.

Edit: Nevermind, on the old version it would just lockup.

Btw what causes a this scenario?
Turret subgroup is saved as in a cob file and successfully converts.
I have a base model that successful converts, but when i add the turret subgroup it gives a stack error.

geometery error - coincidental polygons

PCS2.x will just truncate a branch of the BSP tree [drop polygons] when this happens

Thats good to hear 2 will prevent that problem.  It's too bad that the actually polygon numbers most likely get mixed up during conversion from max->cob->pof, it would be nice to know which ones were giving the problems and correct the problem rather than simply ignore it (course if it's a sliver poly that gets dropped, who cares LOL)

Outside of simply dropping the turret for now, is there any ad-hack workaround? And does the newer version of falseSpace still suffer from float point rounding?
