Assimulate Error.

[TehJace]

OK, I've recently started trying to model, and after I rigged it with the proper skeleton, and ran the jk2_autoHierarchy plugin for 3ds max 6, I exported it to .xsi

 

I've been trying to export it all week, and i get the same error, no matter how i try to change things. here are two screenshots.

 

 

What it says before i get an error^

 

 

^ the error

 

PLEASE some help me with this stuff, i've tried other places, but no one answers -_-

The first image is the real error, the 2nd one is just a report from assimilate that something messed up.

 

I vaguely remember something like this but i'm not sure of the exact cause.

 

-Could be a deleted keyframe on the basepose?

 

-Or the XSI plugin? (but carcass would probably bitch about a wrong version)

[TehJace]

sooooo how should i Fix dis?

[notFP]

What's the name of your xsi exporter?

[TehJace]

dotXSIExport.dle

 

 

and i run 3ds Max 6

[notFP]

So the exporter is right...

 

Are you sure that the model has the right number of frames?

[TehJace]

O.o say what? how do i find zat out?

[notFP]

In max, click on the Time Configuration button (it's in the bottom right, and it has this red clock icon) and change frame count to 2. Make sure you make some animation or it won't work.

[Psyk0Sith]

Adding keyframes @ 0 would do the trick.

 

Which skeleton are you using? The one with dummy objects?

[TehJace]

I am using skeletonplusbolts.max

 

 

I set the frame count to 2(from 101)

 

Adding a keyrame at 0? i'll try that too...still isn't working :\

how do you addd a keyframe to it, without having to animate it....o.O

[notFP]

It's easier to animate it. Just do what's said in Duncan's tutorial, make a bone that isn't weighten to any mesh, and animate it.

[Psyk0Sith]

Just doubleclick the pelvis, that will select the entire skeleton, next, right click on the time slider (0/100) and it'll pop up a box called create key, it's as simple as that.

 

You could also use my JA skeleton:

Wait, are we talking player or vehicle model here?

[LightNinja]

psyko is talking of player models and tehjace vehicles...no?

[TehJace]

PLayer Model.

[notFP]

[TehJace]

I tried making it only 2 keyframes, that didn't work, then i tried the adding a keyframe, it didn't work, so on the export just to try, I clicked on animation to export it with animation :>

and got a *NEW* error.

 

 

 

DUnno if this can help, but there ya go.

[LightNinja]

Jace havent you seen Duncans tutorial name? it is called:

VEHICLE IMPORTING TUTORIAL

[TehJace]

ehm....but i don't want to import a vehicle....erm.....back...to...helping me?

[Psyk0Sith]

I know you are talking about a player model .

 

That 2nd error is because you dont have your windows regional settings in "U.S. mode"

 

Because of the metric system, carcass will refuse to work until you change your settings to U.S. (including english keyboard).

 

Change it and try to export again.

I don't get it. My regional settings are set to Israel (and we have the metric system), yet I never had that problem.

[Psyk0Sith]

I dunno what to tell you, i cant compile anything when in "canadian mode"

[notFP]

I guess I'm too cool to have that error

[TehJace]

It IS set to U.S. o.o

I'm getting confoozled now.

[LightNinja]

I had the same problem, Psyko changing it to US not always changes it. What i did was changing it manually without needing to change the language setings...the bad thing is that i dont remember how i did it

And tfighter, you maybe have the same units than US there.

 

The only problem is that, in a country you write:

1.000€

And in US you write:

1,000€
