3dsimEd help

[kbaum]

I need some help with this, i just cannot figure out why i cannot foigure it out. All i need to do is get the model from 3DsimED to 3dmax. When i do it this is what i get in 3dmax.

I was told to remove the tires and damage layer in 3DsimED, but nomatter what i do i cannot figure out how to do it. ive clicked every button and option the program has and got no where.

This is the first time i am trying to mod with F1 2011, ive come from making Skins for iRacing and doing countless things for NR2003. heres a link to my album just so you can see that i wont be a waste of anyones time... http://s191.photobucket.com/albums/z84/Kbaum4466/

had same problem... solved it by making the model in the export "blender compatible" or something like that... it asks you when you export...

This one I have just done this second.

Just damage decals and all other non needed layers removed.

And then taken into Photoshop.

why can't i get rid of the damage layer or tires. they always show up...

 

[kbaum]

okay now when i hide the tires the whole body hides...

Got the damage to go away btw

 

[kbaum]

Ughh... well i thought i got the damage layer off.. took it to 3dmax and it just continues to look like crap...

 

[Chamonik]

dont delete the damage parts, export it as it is, put it in 3dsmax apply the skin to everything and then delete the parts you dont need... dont know if its the easiest way, but that's what i did... + get the wheels from the "default" archive... i never managed to actually "delete the damage parts...

 

[kbaum]

alright.... it still doesnt look like the one posted above. and this has taken me like 20 mins. the car in general just doesnt look smooth

 

[Chamonik]

O.o you must delete those parts... and keep the "good" ones with the hi polys... dont delete the top "layers" look for the good parts to keep... I know it's a pain in the a*s but i couldn't find a better way... :/ + first to delete, the wheels and anything that comes with them... if you want wheels on your model, you must get them from a different file in the game...

3 hours of trying and i still cant get anywhere with this.

 

[kbaum]

is there anyway i can have it so 3dmax textures it automatically. if i could get that i would be set

 

[kbaum]

took some time but i think i got it with the lotus! just gotta get the tires and then eventually remap everything to be easier to work with!

 

[kbaum]

and the redbull... again gotta get some tires on them, but i have gotten both models textured in photoshop. just need to build a scene for them

I'm glad you finally managed to extract the 3D models!
