Need help with sur

with the regular sur exporter?

yes
the process is quite simple

i cover the model in 3dsmax
trust me i’m not at all a modeler … i know a couple of things about 3dsmax and the interface, maybe 0.5 % of the software
after that, i import all the boxes in milkshape and i export each one with the msSURExporterV1_1.dll

• the sursplicer
• work on the cmp, the same process to put several cmp in one

i’m happy it works, i was confident but ^^ cool

so i’m going back to the bilbringi shipyard now ^^

It looks SO familliar… ou took the idea from Rise of Legends? Theres some unit that looks like this, but not exactly.

Looks a bit primitive for a superior species… And its too spiky.
About the texture, I’d prefer to use Nomad rock texture, because originally the Dom’Kavash created the Nomads, so they probably created the structures also.

Another topic: I also need an SUR for a dockable base, a Coalition Sleeper Ship. (the model is from Homewold, I just added the Coalition symbol). File is attached.

lol …

and i have a lot of work

A “please” or any hint of appreciation would probably be nice, too, DVDMan…

+1

I have an idea: Maby do it without SUR? This model is very complex to make a “Proper” SUR.

Please.

Mirkha, is there a tutorial on how you do the SURs? I’m new to the modding scene and would like to learn. Thanks.

gentlemen, look in the tutorials section, there is a video on that together with the cmp splicing tutorial. that pretty much covers all your needs

here
and
here

i’ll give you a text process this evening
but anyway the method is also to modify the cmp, because we inject parts who refers to the sur in it

so you can now learn how to modify a cmp

we have to draw simples shapes
squares, rectangles, cylinders and spheres
so no, none model is very difficult because you decompose it by simples shapes
the problem are that if your model is complex it’s difficult to see certain parts and you will have a lot of boxes to add in the cmp
but the most “difficult” if i can say it’s to draw in 3dsmax/milkshape
