Quickly, someone hand me a rope and point me to a tall tree!!
I would be seriouslly surprised if yet another set of problems wouldn´t arise.
Seems i´m a magnet to them...
I got passed all the other problems, red page after page ti´ll my eyes refused to work, wrote post after post, and now that i thought i would finally get to see my models in FS, well, i got another problem!!:mad:
To put it simply, my models crash on FRED, as soon as i try to insert them. Everytime it crashes to desktop.
So i made a little experiment:
I made a simple cube and tried it. It worked.
I made a set of cubes, boleean them together, and tried it. It worked.
I made another yet more complex set, with cubes, spheres, odd angles, adding and subtracting pieces at random, and tried it. Again, it worked.
Then i picked up the most simple model i got, with the least ammount of polys, and tried it again. It crashed!!! Oh little wonder...
So, either FRED is picking on me, or my models have geometry problems. So i went and checked them, and double checked them. I triangulized them, looked around for holes, missing faces, anything odd inside the model, and found nothing.
PCS accepts the models allright, so why doesn´t FRED?
Is it a poly number issue? Can´t be, my models are low on polys.
Is it a scale issue? No, the simple cubes were the same size or bigger than the complex ones.
Is it a texture issue? No, they were all painted using one single texture, some worked (the cubes), some didn´t (the complex ones).
So what the f**k is wrong with it??? I´m at a loss here.
I´m starting to wonder if it´s all worth the trouble...
