I'm converting atv from insane to ofp...

[gr4vy 0]

Hello, everyone!

I've started to convert the ATV from Insane for OFP.

(by the way: Thanks to Cyanide for the file, everything worked well )

All started well, I extracted the file, loaded it into Z-Modeller (some kind of 3d prog, mostly used for racing games) in order to export it to a 3ds file...

The body from the ATV is split up in parts, you have one modell for the body, the tires and for the steering thing.

So I loaded everything in ZModeller and placed everything at its place. I applied a texture to the whole thing, so far so good. But when I export it to 3ds and want to load it in O2, the following message comes from O2:

Missing KFDATA section.

I don't have any clue, what this can mean...

Can anyone help?

But so far, here is a picture from the ATV in ZModeller:

As long I am not making any profit of it, it should be ok, or am I wrong?

Probably not, since Insane is a game published by a corporation, they are likely to have corporation like rules.

Most likely if you read the copyright it will say something along the likes of 'thou shall not touch anything in this game unless we let you', so if you go ahead and make it and they find out, yes, you will probably be in big trouble.

Well, ok, I'll send em a Mail about it...

But does someone have a solution for my problem which seems to be a general problem...

Well, since I couldn't get this error fixed, I started preparing another car for O2...

Once again from Insane, but this time it's a inofficial addon, and I'm allowed to convert it for OFP..

It's a Ford F350 flatbed:

I can't believe people still panic about copyrights for models and such...take a look around, half the addons for every game out there are imported from other games.

Chill out people. If your'e not making a profit off it, the worst the game companies are likely to do is request you take it off the web and cease distribution...

Love that ATV and theat flatbed truck! WOW.

[gr4vy 0]

Yeah. That's what I thought too, Major Fubar!

By the way:

I have solved the problem and have both vehicles now in Oxygen, so I'm moving forward The Flatbed truck will come in 2, maybe 3 versions:

Civil Version with 4 seats (2 in the cockpit, 2 sitting on the ramp)

Medic Version for Resistance (2 in the Cockpit, and 4 guys lying on the ramp)

And a Combat Version with a mounted M2 machine gun or something like that

I will keep you guys informed!

bye,
