Sur for 3db?
-
Could try this also.
http://www.gamefront.com/files/20193523/SURSpliceForOBJCon.rarI had a mess around with the sur_splice source cause I wanted to do a hitbox for a model that was gonna have animations and to put it simply, I hate milkshape.
It will splice together single mesh parts made with Smachs objtosur converter, it should also let you rename the root to what ever you like // for 3dbs?
Just leave the inertia and radius values at (0) in the ini cause it will read it from the SUR generated by the converter and those values are spot on.
And I do meen single meshes.

The option is already added to my .sur converter but I am busy right now with our mod, I can’t make any promise when I will release the next version.

P.S it’s still no substitue for the converter.

@SilentAssassin82
I will try this but at next time i have to make model. Sur Splice is the only one tool i haven’t used, so maybe this is the good time to study it.@Schmackbolzen
Please… make it support more complex model like my asteroid… -

Its not exactly the topic of the thread, but it would be really awesome if there was a 3db->sur converter! I think its even possible to do with XML project, isn’t it?XML Project doesn’t support surs. I’ve thought about adding it, but I’m not really that keen. If they were wrapped in the UTF format, I would have, though, go figure.

3dbs and surs are entirely different formats - look at the sources to the Project (or UTFEditor) and SurDump for the nitty-gritty. Obj->Sur will generate a sur, you just need to edit it in the manner previously discussed (until the new version comes out). Not sure what the Builder does. The MilkShape exporter will handle it directly, if I can ever get around to updating it.

You need to use SUR Exporter v1.1, because v1.2 causes problems, it was experimental.
There is a trick you can try for your .3db - import it into MilkShape, reduce the poly count using ConvexTool on each group, or whatever you want, then fix anything that needs fixing, note the hardpoint names, delete them and the original model groups, rename the _convex groups to the original goup names, then export it as an .obj and use that to make your sur using obj-sur converter.
