Hi, i am evolving myself with the trend these days and i'm passing from .lom to .edm and from FC2 to FC3. I'm trying to make an F-16D mod for FC3 and i'm having a problem with all the new differences from FC2. For example i don't know where to declare the skins, in old FC2 format there was a .skins file in the "Shapes" folder. Also the .cdds seem to dissapear with the new FC3 format, also i'd like to know how to make a nonflyable to be flyable using existing cockpits. Can anyone explain all these things, or if there is a tutorial on the web to share the link please?

you can see a smoothing problem :(

 

i have no idea why 3ds max does not smooting well, while sometimes does :dunno: sdfp_A.jpg

 

do you know guys how to "force" the smooth in 3ds max ?

Assuming renders work properly in max, try the calculate normals setting in the EDM options.

 

Is the 3ds max 2015 supported ?

 

TY

No

No

 

Select Poly/Mesh in max, goto face sub group, select all the faces pf the part, go to smoothing section on the side panel, unpress all the number groups or.hit clear, then choose auto. Re export.

 

I turn all the smoothing and normal adjustments in the exporter off.

Version 94949 of the MV seems to be working... sort of.

 

Crap, I guess I forgot to post that the Model Viewer should be working again as of a few weeks ago.

 

 

Joey, what do you mean, sort of?

With that version (and the hawk) the model flickers with the model statistics showing.

 

EDIT Version Number 94949

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

See attach

I'm not exporting there, only to the Max scenes folder.

 

As the plugin defaults back to 1:1 scale I use the tool bar thingy.

This is with Version 94949

 

EDIT: I see new version is out, I'll try that....

With Version 95704 same issue with the languge in the EDM exporter and the flickering is worse in the MV then version 94949.
