3 problems:

1) PCS2 crashes when trying to load my debris. I haven't checked which pieces cause it yet, and it's probably just a model error. Any ideas on what I should look for?

2) PCS2 will not import anything named other than detail# and debris0#. I was told I could import all my subsystems without hierarchy and do hierarchy in PCS2- how do I do this?

3) Last time I imported all the normals were flipped. No idea why. Might be nothing.

HALP!

What modeling program are you using?

1) never had this problem, how many debris objects are you importing?

2) I have never been able to import sub objects unless they are within the detail hierarchy

3) I know for Blender when you mirror objects or part of the mesh the faces get inverted so you have to go into edit and recalculate normals, dont know if you are suffering something similar

Wings3d.

1) 9 debris pieces. Haven't tried to find out which one(s) have the problem yet though.

2) Someone said I could do hierarchy in PCS2. How do I get all my turrets in? Do I just need to name them as LODs or debris pieces and then rename then once I'm in PCS2? 'Cause that would suck major balls

You know, it always helps if you post the model that causes the crash. Because then the rest of us can check it out to see where the problem is, you know.

Also, I just tested it and it's "debris01" that causes the crash.

OK, so I got the model into blender 2.49 through the 3ds format (blender wouldn't import a dae from wings). I did hierarchy and got all the subobjects in the right place, and now I'm trying to correctly import to PCS.

Blender -> dae 1.3.1 -> PCS: PCS doesn't load anything from the model.
Blender -> dae 1.4 -> PCS: PCS crashes trying to load the model.
Blender -> dae -> Wings: whoops, wings doesn't import dae.
Blender -> 3ds -> Wings: Wings won't import anything from the 3ds.
Blender -> obj -> Wings: Wings won't import anything from the obj.

WTF. What else can I try?!!! Anyone who uses Blender, how do you get your models into POF?!

[EDIT] I know six of you have download the no-hierarchy model I put up. Has anyone done anything useful with it?

[EDITEDIT] **** YEAH *****ES IT'S IN PCS2
