Need help with converting…
-
Hey everyone, what’s up?
Well anyways, I’ve been playing single player for a while now and I’m wanting to mod a some ships into it for variety. I’m a big fan of Stargate SG-1 & Atlantis and thought it would be cool to play with some ships from that show. There aren’t a ton of ships from Stargate in the Freelancer community but there are a ton of Stargate ships in the Bridge Commander modding community and I found a nice tutorial in The Starport’s download section that is just for doing that. (Click here, it’s the one at the bottom)
I’ve downloaded everything necessary (Milkshape 3D, DDS Converter, Hard-CMP, UTF Editor, NIF Importer for Bridge Commander files and CMP exporter.) and have been following the tutorials directions just as it says but when I get to the step to open the CMP in HardCMP, I get this
when it should look something like this.
So, any ideas?

how amny polies is that thing!
also, if you want i can take a look at the files for you
could just be a model problem, tho it could be just its exporting badly ^^ as i said, if you want i could take a look at the files for you

Possibly try that:
– check version of CMP exporter (i think there are different ones)
– disable SUR or CMP/3ds IMPORTER (not sure i think it was the SUR stuff which mixed up things a bit)– try to run the model cleaner in milkshape
This will possibly get you 2 a point, where the model looks similar in Milkshape,
as the thing you got in HardCMP.– maybe try 2 rename groups and materials
to something unique (like deadalus01, deadalus02, …)
and without special chars.Not sure if anything of the above can or will have an effect
but that’s what i might try 2 do.And sometimes we just live with the junk-output and
– try to find another similar model
(possibly with lower polygons)
