really horizontally in Max? I need to flip them vertically in Maya.

My bad, my bad, it is of course VERTICALLY

T.

I did the same, imported into Max, indeed the uv mappings need to be flipped horizontally, didn't need to rotate it since you can tell in the importer to do so Smoothing groups suck :/ here is a little render on a Cavalier: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8440/7783746648_f19331088f_z.jpg iz nize no :D...

I've noticed that there are a lot of ppl looking for these localisation files ( not specificly for this game)

Why? The game is in English, what else do you need?

Any progress on the .a3d files yet ?

T.

in VST0, the chunk is 24, and only 6 bytes are being used, in our code, 6 bytes being 3 * half floats ( 2 bytes per float ) what about the other 18 bytes? they aren't vertex weights, cause there does not seem to be any reference to any bones here... could it be normals ? also half floats could it be...

I decided to give up to try it in c# and see what I can do with the .py scripts


What tool do you guys use to test/debug etc the .py script before you test it in Noesis?

T.

Damn, I was so close...

I don't seem to have a Half Precision Floating point in c#... :/


T.

Yeah, the numbers seem to add up, just not the chunks... VST0 ->24 I assume 5 floats + 1 Signed Int ( could be if this is the w coordinate), being the xyz of the vertex, then the uvw of the vertex, but when I read them, they result in something weird like: v[7.383575E-38,5.123147E-42,5.605194E-45] u...

Sorry... what?
equals -1 as a signed Int or a signed Byte, but what do I do with it?

If I build it up like

v1,v2,v3,uv1,uv2

the uv2, mostly ends up in -1, but is that an ok uv value?

T.

mmm.. ok :) int chunkType = (int)r.ReadUInt16(); int unk = (int)r.ReadUInt16(); int chunkSize = (int)r.ReadUInt32(); int structSize = (int)r.ReadUInt32(); char[] chunkName = r.ReadChars(4); I already figured that out... thnx Then I tried to read the chunk part ( at least I try to parse it) but it ha...

what does the

Thnx

In Neosis, maybe, but not in OBJ, since it does not support any bones or rigging.

But, I haven't heard anything from CriticalError, so...
