Psyk0Sith Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Ahh if it were that easy.... There's a whole process involved in exporting a player model from 3D max. 1.You have to segment the model (if already uvw mapped) 2.Weight the mesh to the skeleton 3.Add caps 4.Send that through carcass so it can be converted to .glm. There's a softimage plugin for max 4.x included in the 1st tool pack.

I want to know in your opinion what is the best game compiler Jk radient Q3radient or GtKradient and why thanks again Psyk0Sith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyk0Sith Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Are you talking about characters or static objects?, i assumed you were talking about a player model because of the .glm... i think the engine uses .md3 files when displaying static objects (bacta, health pack...etc.) so it all depends on what you are trying to export... Sorry if i gave you the wrong info ... Let me know if you have other questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
