Point Taken..........

So whens Da'brain >NARF< gonna release his evil Quax of Doom?

[Getter Robo G]

I Dunno, I'm not sure if he really IS working on the Yellowstar fleet (don't forget the Bluestar Brain!) 

And I thought I had the "Quack of Doom..." 

I honestly thought I'd be done by now but I am stuck on the animation...

BTW,

   Does anyone know any type conversion program for using Flight Simulator meshes as standard model formats? (.MDL's).

  Milkshake can't do it as it's a difff type of .MDL then Quake and Serious Sam use. Unless there is a plug-in I don't know about...

My net searches have deadended, thanks in advance...

You may now worship at the Temple of Spork.

Seen it... From the listed description it sounds opposite from what I need. Unless I read it wrong it takes an .mdl from Flight Simulator and turns it into a cfs proprietary format for that game (Microsoft Comabt Simulator)...

I want the flight sim file for OPEN use in FS2 so I need it converted to: .obj, or, .vrml, or .lwo, or .3ds, or .cob I can handle all those formats (just NOT .MAX!!!)

And I only worship the spork when I go to KFC for potatoes...

66 converters there, But i think 3D exploration takes MDLs..........

   I've got a huge announcement pending not related to any of the above, but that should benefit the Modders (NOT modelers) of ships. I hesitated before to mention what activity I was doing but now that the permission has been granted all I need is the "STUFF" which is being supplied soon.

  Needless to say it won't be for probably another week or so.

   So in the meantime, wait for a new thread to be made by me in, antici..........pation!

 


[EDIT] Dekker you Silly Goose! It has NOTHING to do with that, that line is from Rocky Horror... WOw now I really do feel 36... lol!!!

gggrrrr, was workign on a new turret for Gundam mods specifically (or others), but ran into a snag.

In modelview the arm bounding box is INSIDE the main hull!?!!! 

There is no way to move it..

Also soemthing I never seen before, th turrets have spaces in the subobject list

t1
t1-arm


t2
t2-arm


ect... as if there are two unlisted object in the way!? Is this affecting anything??

I cobbled the turret together out of DOGA parts and think I screwed up the axis though they look right.

If anyone who knows turrets can look at this and explain what I did wrong woudl be great...  l8tr...

Just when I thought I figured this stuff out...
