Thank you Kai for you sweeeeeeet updated item editor with skeel mod/bane dmg.

Since model viewer isnt working for me, any on know the ID for the Black Acrylia Battle Axe?

[Bardboy]

Thanks for the answer. I can't wait till i can create pink polka dot bikinis for the trolls.

Big Kudos for the contribution. /cheer

Are you going to work on the model skeleton system? I think that would be great, so we could use them in our own programs :p

[wurmslayer2k]

Nm, Model viewer works now. Before i was on 800x600 and it was too big and the Load S3D wasn't there. Great job!!!!!!!!

[Hmm]

heh it do have some problems with export. im not sure but obj supports textures? also zone models is just messed up. ( yes i got strong enough computer to show entire zone in wire form )

If I get a flash of inspiration and the format of the data magically reveals itself, then yes. I know what I'd expect bone information to look like, and the data in the file doesn't look like it so I'm a bit stuck.

Obj files have support for materials, but I'm not quite sure how the Max importer handles them. I've certainly never gotten a texture to appear in Max when imported as an Obj, but I put that down to my lack of Max knowledge . I do write out the texture coordinates though so it should just need the material assigning in Max. Oh, and zones don't work, you're right there

[Hmm]

its possible that zone model also uses some data to put where that section goes to that spot, etc etc. so when read by your program it just shows a big poly mess.

it may be my program tha stripped textures off tho. can you export to some other format?

[Kaiyodo]

can you export to some other format?

What did you have in mind? As I say I'm no max export so I don't know which formats will import in while retaining textures. Just don't ask for a .Max file export

I choose .Obj files because they are by far the most simple 3d file format on the planet, big list of verts, big list of face indices. It allowed me to get the files into Max with minimum coding effort

[Hmm]

whatever bryce 4 can import and keep textures

well bryce isnt the best program out there but its one i know how to use.

[Baron Sprite]

bryce used to be so leet

This is pretty weird; inside the helm there is like a... tooth..

You probably have more than one model selected (or didnt use the "Only show selected" option.
