Up to Date Modding Programs?
Hi,
first: Sorry for my bad English! ;)

The last time i was modding Freespace 2, is nearly 8 years ago...

Now i am testing Freespace 2 Open.

But the Moddingprograms from fs2open are to old?!

What do i need to "create"  shields???

I want to make a simple mod: A Capship with shields.

My old Mod was working well, but i can't get it to work  now.

I have used "Segeltuch" to generate shields.

But now the program crashes if i want to generate the pof-file.

Modelviewer32 is not really better, it make problems to.

And the mv32 can not create shields only import them.

What do i need to get my shielded capship back?

With a good shield and more than 20 "faces".

I have a perfect shield but in segeltuch .fprj

Does anyone have a working segeltuch?

Can somebody please help?

Sorry again for my terrible English! My Klingon is better!  :D :D :D

bye
K.

Re: Up to Date Modding Programs?
Segeltuch = dead and never stable - always created bad models
Modelview = garbage

use PCS2 - latest release candidate build in my sig

to create shields make a group in truespace named "shield" and the geometry in that (MUST BE TRIANGULATED) will be made into the shield by PCS2

Re: Up to Date Modding Programs?
Hi again,
thanks for the answer.

Working on Freespace was easy years ago.

But now, i cant get something together.

Truespace and PCS 2.0?!  :shaking:

Truespace is a strange program.  :confused:

And PCS says: Editing of shields is currently unavailable!

Im to stupid to use these programs.  :sigh:

bye
K.

Re: Up to Date Modding Programs?
you have to make shields in truespace - a special subobject named "Shield" which must be triangulated.
