3Dsmax ArmA2 modding toolset

[Alliexx 10]

Hi there,

I ment 2 uv "channels" on 1 model.

1 house, inside and outside different uv map.

Maybe i'm just asking stupid questions, but i'm just starting with this O2 addon making.

Since i'm using 3ds max also for other business, i was more home in max then in O2, so the plugin for max was super great, but making model for arma is totally new for me, i do have some experiance in visitor, making islands.

The thing is, that 1 uv for a quite complex house, gives me to little detail for all the parts in a 2048X2048 texture.

I hope you guys can give me the next hint to get going again. :)

Thank you very much,

Regards,

Alphons

Edit:

This is my problem:

Excuse me for a minute, Can this be an alternative to Oxygen 2?

[soul_assassin 1750]

sorry no. Max is missing some fundamental features that have been built specifically for O2 and are necessary for complex game engine stuff. In essence it is possible to expand 3dsmax to a point but it would take too much time and effort that I dont have.

Soul_Assassin, what about proxyes for vehicles?!

this does not seem to work for 3ds max 2012.. any idea how to throw er in there real fast ? lol really want this..like a kid in a candy store

[soul_assassin 1750]

Ive been using it with 2012 x64 exclusively since it was brought out. Works fine. It would be very strange if it didnt work. Maxscript has always been forward compatible. If some functions become old they are stilled kept. What errors you get? Do you follow the instructions fully?

[J-Guid 10]

Soul test it with Max 2013! :)

[Doofy 2]

Hi, sorry if anyone has asked this previously, why do i get this error --Runtime error: can't load button images: bitmap: "C;\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds max 2010\scripts\ArmAToolBox\armaToolBox2.bmp" I am running 3ds max 2012 on windows 7 64 bit

[PuFu 4600]

did you install it properly.? The first post has a video explaining, step by step the process (which is faily easy if you don't rush it...)

[warmad 1]

Yeah i followed the steps very carefully, i am thinking of re downloading just incase there was an error while downloading

[Doofy 2]

Thanks for the update:

It now saves if I dont choose "materials and textures". But when opening in Oxygen 2, it says " unable to load file".

Really confused now.

However, if I choose "save materials and textures"

I get the following:

function readTextureFilePath mtl num=
(
	bmp = mtl.geteffectbitmap num
	BmpFileName = bmp.filename
	BmpFileNameRel = pathConfig.removePathTopParent BmpFileName
	return BmpFileNameRel
),

Just wondering if anyone figured out what the code means becouse im getting the same code.

Do you guys have any idea where the link would be?

That has nothing to do with Soul Assassin's Toolbox. Use the search function, and if you do not find what you're looking for, then perhaps contact T_D.

Can't wait for RTM module and ArmA 3!

Hi I am using 3ds max 2015 and 2014 ... i had a work around. It seems like the path is hardcoded.

I copied the armatoolbox content into the folder where it is looking for it ...

C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2010\scripts\

There i moved the hole armatoolbox...

Is there an updated toolset for 3DS Max 2016, or is this the most current one available?
