Fortran 1 Posted July 30, 2009 Just a quick question, is there any part of the toolkit that allows you to work out the rotational/translation percentage or degrees (min/max) for the model.cfg ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted July 30, 2009 Well indirectly. You set two memory points and then u assign them as the axis for a part. This moves the pivot of the object right between these points (just as it would be in game) now rotating in the local coord system you can try out how far ur part can rotate. Make a note of it and put it in the model.cfg generator :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anykey 1 Posted July 30, 2009 I really can't wait to use it , it will save me so much time and make me even more motivated to make addons and to work again on my ArmA 1 mod to export it and finish it on ArmA 2 !!! Thank you very much Soul_Assassin for working on this tool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mod0 0 Posted July 31, 2009 hey u make a maya 2008 toolset any chance :D:D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtec 0 Posted July 31, 2009 Ive just moved over to 3dmax from BIS o2 toolset, i will indeed be following this thread and hopefully using this great toolset you have delivered, good work Soul_Assassin! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted July 31, 2009 Next on the feature list is the material editor and the rtm module. But for these things we await more info from BIS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted August 10, 2009 Big news :) For the last week Ive been coding a p3d exporter for 3dsmax (read: work in max and then save as p3d and open in o2, there will be no o2->max component). Features: - possibility to export a model with any ammout of LODs (to be determined how this will be set up, most likely using the max layer system) - export supports both tri's and quads. This was a hard one as max does not automatically sort vertices in the correct fashion (the functions were not designed for that), complex functions had to be setup to take care of that so you dont get any inverted polies etc. - saves texture and rvmat assignments. this will be linked up to the material editor. - saves object names as selection names (no more 10 character restriction by 3ds format. - uses the right coordinate system (swapped y-z) so what you see in max is what u get in o2, no more mirroring after import. Future possible developments: - a vertex based selection naming system (more like O2) as opposed to max's object based. - any ideas welcome BUt have a look at the video: Kvt3OjJu7_o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fortran 1 Posted August 10, 2009 You are THE man!!! this is truly excellent! Saving texture & Rvmat assignment alongside the P3D export is just a godsend! Amazing work, truly amazing! Can see a month or so from now O2 will be entirely obsolete in the export process!! Literally been checking the 2 threads twice or more per day waiting for some news lol! Fantastic stuff mate!

EricM 0 Posted August 11, 2009 Awsome MAX Layers are a very nice way to replicate the LOD system indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PuFu 4600 Posted August 11, 2009 if you pull this off, you will be my personal hero. This might actually increase the quality and numbers of addons while reducing the timeframe for creating one. nice job altogether. Looking forward for the update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again with this p3d export ability.. you are doing a wonderful job and well appreciated inside the ArmA community. Can't wait to see the upcoming release soul. Keep up the wonderful and great work!

Geronimo 0 Posted August 16, 2009 Hi all I am new to modding this game, but I modded BF-2 so I have a question: With this tool, will it be possible to do all the 3d work in 3ds max, without messing with the Oxygen at all? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted August 16, 2009 no, not yet at least Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted August 16, 2009 AFfafaw awEFADa YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. And you did it just in the way I was thinking of doing it. Max layers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soul_assassin 1750 Posted August 31, 2009 A demonstration of working LOD system which will later be hooked up to the p3d exporter. NOTE: before anyone starts asking about the soldier, I exported every lod seperately with the O2 3ds export then imported them onto different layers. 2PbIUyFtxgU Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
