Ansible Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 How do you extract a .GLA file? Wizip won't do it, and neither will WinRAR. Can someone help me? I also need to know where to find a .XSI importer for 3D Studio Max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMan Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Anyone else care to show this person where to look? Hint: it's in the third post from the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansible Posted July 1, 2002 Author Share Posted July 1, 2002 Please, I'm not trying to be a burden, I'm just new to all this. I check the Polycount Jedi Knight II resource links, and looked through the tutorial. I still can't find what I'm looking for. I was informed that the xsi importer/exporter was in the Editing Tools EXE, that you download from the Raven resource links. But I don't know witch one it is. And if it isn't in there than can someone tell me were to find it?? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMan Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Read the readme file in the jk2 tools that you downloaded from raven. It'll tell you exactly where it is. And in case you don't know where to put it, put it in the "plugins" directory in your max directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansible Posted July 1, 2002 Author Share Posted July 1, 2002 I know were to put it, I’m not stupid. I just had a little trouble finding it. Know there’s the trouble of extracting .GLA files.

KMan Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 what's a gla file? I know what a glm file is, but I don't model for JK2 so I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sithlord-II Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 right now we cannot extract GLA files - they are the animated skeletons setup for the models, created in softimage, and changed into a custom GLA format. sithlord-ii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ansible Posted July 1, 2002 Author Share Posted July 1, 2002 JK2 Tools release 2. Unzip this to C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData, Or wherever you have the game installed. It will create a Tools folder in Gamedata where you'll find these programs: EffectsEd.exe - the editor we used to create EFX files. BehavEd.exe - the editor we used to create Icarus scripts. IBIZE.exe - the Icarus script compiler (Note: the ICARUS compiler used in JK2 is the same as the Elite Force version, but the BehavEd.bhc file has changed.) roq.exe - tool to compile images into a RoQ video. and these Documents: bot_tutorial\bot_tutorial.txt - how to make bots for MP Bot waypoint tutorial.doc Guide to SOF2JK2 Vertigons.doc Guide to SOF2JK2 Weather.doc ICARUS Manual.doc JK2_Model_Tutorial_by_Tim_Appleby_JK2.doc Model Constuction Conventions.doc Using_EffectsEd.doc (and this readme.txt) and SPscripts.zip - all the scripts from JK2 Single Player as reference. It will also extract the game source folders: Code\ - all the source code for the game VMs. (see Code\MakeAMod_readme.txt for more info) bin\ - the folder for code compiling ui\ - support folder to compile code It will extract some more example maps and models to Base as well. This is the readme file you told me to look in, I can't seem to find were it says to find the plugin...can you? Please, if you know the name of the plugin, tell me. I checked all folders for a file that might represent a plugin, found one or two but wasn't what I was looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KMan Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Don't know what vers you have. This is how mine read. Unzip this to C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData, Or wherever you have the game installed. It will create a Tools folder in Gamedata where you'll find these programs: JK2Radiant - the map editor. ShaderEd2 - the shader editor/viewer sof2map - the map compiler, you will not be using this directly, JK2Radiant uses this. MD3View - model viewer for .md3 format models ModView - model viewer for .glm (Ghoul2) format model carcass - the glm model compiler (uses car files) converts root.xsi to model.glm Assimilate - edits car files Max4Tools\XSIImporter.dli - a plugin for Max4 to load and save xsi files (note carcass requires no spaces in your path so you may have to move the files to build a model!) There is also a document on how to view models and make skins for Jedi Knight 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
