I have a model that i have converted into a COB file format.  The thing is i need to convert it into a POF, does anyone know of any tools that can do this.  i have the PCS tool i think its called but when i go to convert a COB to a POF it keeps saying i havent grouped those objects.  Can anyone help me.

You probably don't have an LODs defined

Lods are Levels Of Detail, representing the model at various distances (set in the tbl entry).  The further awaya, the less polys the model has - thus, the computer is saved effort in rendering it.

I'd suggest getting a copy of cob2fs2 to convert your model - that works with single lods - so you can check it works in FS2.

(heh.  Missed my reply in other thread by a minute or so )

use cob2pof or segeltuch. (look to volitionwatch)

Or  then you just forgot to add a local light and group it with the model? You don't really need LOD:s.

use PCS its the only decent converter - heres a guide for setting it up with truespace 4
