A modelling question...and a project idea.
EHM-1001 Robert:
I modelled the ship as a HALF model in a program that creates solids and not polygons. When it converted to GMAX the model was divided into polygons. I know there are many that useless and could be deleted from GMAX. I created the model, maybe somebody can improve it to be a real FS scenery add-on, because I am absolute dumb for GMAX. Now the half ship consists of 5000 polys. It is similar to a well detailed aircraft, so I guess it will not be so frame-rate friendly. If somebody could further edit it, it would be a fine add-on...
EHM-1001 Robert:
I bring up the question here too.
The problem with my GMAX, there is a plug-in called FSModelExp.dle that is a connection between GMAX and MakeMDL.exe. The mentioned plug-in creates a ".x" file export, that is input for MekeMDL, which will create the BGL object into the game. I do not have this plug-in, so I cannot make any scenery with my ABSOLUTELY FREE program.
I have FS2002 pro, and every tutorials says, the file must be on the CD ! When you install FS, the free GMAX is also unzipped to your HDD, ready for installation. The file should sit there, inside the ../FS2002/gmax/gmaxsetup11.cab file. BUT IT IS NOT THERE ! The .dle file is not public, it said it was only delivered in the pro version of FS2002.
You can download an only FS2004 version freely from the net, but it does not work properly. The question is up:
FS2002 version of FSModelExp.dle WANTED ! In case you have it, I would be very glad, if you passed it to me. Thank you...

EHM-1001 Robert:
Thank you Rico, but it just do not work... :'( :'( :'(
I can only make FS2004 version MDL with the available SDK, but I cannot conver the model into FS2002...
