Hi Startrader ^^ you too , still alive ??
thks bro … yup a looooong time
same as me, nothing attracted me … i have take a look on Star Citizen, but finally nope … i will take a look on Elite Dangerous … with some of my friends …
at this time , i will reinstall FL … and couple of patches
hello
i haven’t play FL since 5 years …
i’m looking if FL work on W10 64 Bits …
if yes, what’s the last stable patch to play SP mission ?
a patch for 16/9 screen ?
a patch for HD textures ?
best regards
look with UTF editor on missionvendor.txm
you will found your request
the question is:
have you a Hpcockpit into your cmp model of ship ?
cuz, if you don’t have , as Bejaymac says, the view is based of the origine of ship at 0,0,0 instead to use the HpCockpit origine as 0,0,0
in fact your drift of view seems come from here …
confirm please if you have a Hpcockpit hardpoint please or not
cuz for me, the drift come from, when you change of view, you slide of two position ( external view to cockpit )… you exit the game, come back, but the different of slide is save into your character data, your cockpit view have this slide a little bit
could be fix if it’s missing a HpCockpit into your model
look if you have a Hpcockpit into your model, to fix the origine of view
i’m looking for a list of all animations available …
i don’t remember where i have allready see it …
if someone have a list, please
Thx Motah …
it will be very usefull …

warning …
just an update to our process
this method work only with the SUR exporter 1.1, cuz the 1.2 don’t have the same algorythm and generate a crash
looking on this tutorial i must say that its a method that i only want to use on very complex objects coz its much more complicated then creating surs in ms3d and much more time consuming
i guess its good for creating stations surs… but not good for ship surs.
everybody are free to use the way he want ……
this tutorial is just to explain how to do a perfect SUR file …
if you prefered to a more simple SUR, that’s your choice
myself, i prefer , my way, cuz, it’s much closer than the model,
imagine a model with a hole into it … look more fun to do this hole instead to have a bubble around … every shoot will pass throught the model by this hole … more realistic …
after each modder will found his way …
after if into your mod, you are alone to do all, sure to safe time, do a simple SUR …
it just an offer to the community … to present a more complex SUR file creation …
our simple idea is to share our discover and knowledge …
If my CMP model is one part (not only one group), how to make it to work ?
Same as above ?
your cmp could be in multiple part, it doesn’t matter
you could have a cmp in only one volume or in separate element …
when you do the SUR, box will be close to your CMP
you could do a solid one bloc SUR , or a multiple SUR for destructible component or animate part …
if you do multiple SUR, better to do multiple CMP, with parent function for destructible of animate
CzW
nice!
will definately help the newbies out
a DETAILED tut for getting ships modeled in 3d max exported 2 3DS and imported into MS3D exported as CMP SUR and MAT working would be nice tho

looks good thanks for that.
Does anybody know what scale in max you should use that fits with Freelancer model scales? (saves re-sizing)
we have use this setting …
1 unit in milkshape is 1 meter in game …
we have scale it to a PNC in game with a box for comparaison
Thx Mirkha …
i haven’t the time yesterday to translate it … thx to FriendlyFire to have done it …
This is a long work we have done with Mirkha of testing step by step all this tutorial
with this method, and this soft, you could create ring, tubular form , boolean form, convace form and convex form with ANY problem of SUR in space …
and now without Sun light throught an object
at this time, if someone have enough knowledge to delevop a import/export function for 3Dmax, it will be great …
why we have use 3Dmax, cuz Milkshape is very buggy to create complex form and impossible to do boolean operation
vertex 3d posittionning and orientation could create bugs into the SUR with milkshape, not if your bow was done with 3Dmax .
please , to all who will use this tutorial, just post a thx into your credit for , Mirkha & CzW , that’s just we requiring …
hope now work on Syd information to animate models …
with this tuto, i think we could do great thing with animate model
Hey Cz.
I think the entire FL community could use your tutorial now. I’m hoping for 2.0 to be released sometime July 2009. I’m pretty sure there are a lot of modders out there that could use your tutorial now. So, please, there is no need to keep your technique secret. I’d, personally, rather you share it with this community here.
However, this is your call.
Regarding the images, great work as always, CzW
As you want Sushi …
i will do this soon … i discuss of this with Mirkha do definite the best tuto
Hi Sushi … Hi Jong …
ok, let’s go …
http://files.filefront.com/neut+1wmv/;12293361;/fileinfo.html
http://files.filefront.com/neutral+c+suravi/;12216256;/fileinfo.html
the process for those perfect SUR is confidential at this time, cuz, it’s an exclusivity for FreeWorlds …
as soon as , the mod is deliver, all tutorial with be public …
you will able to use convex, convace, tubular model, ring … as you want ….without cuting them in separate elements
