No promises though.
Faye Ying Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 can't you just use mat master or some other older programs to convert to bmp. take photoshop or wahtever, convert to tga. then zip it up and rename to pk3?
delta_7890 Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Ah, you mean a .max format. Well, I can save it to XSI format, but I don't have the stuff to compile it. I *do* have the JKII editing tools, but none seem to work...perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
DarthCobra Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Man I really wish ppl would take the time to go thru these threads before askin the same questions over and over and over again. Import one of the other lightsabers into max/gmax.. steal the tags. Export md3. Load the md3 in the md3viewer provided with the tools, export as glm. Assuming you have your skin already. Filenames should be like saber_w.glm saber_w.md3 saber_w_1.md3 (this is a lower lod I assume) saber1.jpg. Then use PakScape or some other pk3 packager (they are easy enough to find). make sure u have your models/skin in models/weapons2/saber in any dir any drive. And add the model dir to your pk3. Put the pk3 in your base dir and your done.
delta_7890 Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Ah....problem here. I can only export as XSI. If anyone here could provide me with an MD3 exporter, I'd be very much appreciative.
DarthCobra Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Again I really wish ppl would read the thread before askin the same questions over and over and over.... But I'll be nice and post a link for u, since your too lazy to do it yourself. http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=50019
delta_7890 Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Well, if the admin didn't lock the search function, perhaps I would search myself. However, since that isn't the case, I really didn't feel like trudging through countless pages on serveral forums without knowing if the plug-in I wanted was even listed in the community. All the same, thanks.
delta_7890 Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Well, maybe it's just me, but neither the link, nor the homepage of his site works for me.
DarthCobra Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Id hardly call it countless pages. But its easier just to ask in here right. http://www.btinternet.com/~cjcookson/gmax/q3-md3beta.zip If you had actually takin the time to search that thread a little harder .. You would have seen that link.
Jo Posted May 26, 2002 Author Posted May 26, 2002 well...all i know is i have no idea how to convert it and i have non of the software to do it..
DarthCobra Posted May 26, 2002 Posted May 26, 2002 Well i guess your just hopeless then.. Delete it. Considering. Milkshape has a demo period. GMAX is free, the plugins are free.. Come on man.. get to it.
