The Heroes Round Table

i'm not sure what is wrong with normals - i use onesided textures and 3D max show them to me. if normal is inverted - max show me pure black polygon in every angle - and i invert it back...but if it was textured i guess it should be fine. i cannot test every polygon\face in the model to be 10% sure...

also you can try more detailed model with more polygons http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/2906/templen.jpg http://slil.ru/28759422 Wow! That thing is huge! I manually broke the file up into 8 pieces as I haven't implemented automatic model sectioning, and it's definitely visible. The floor seems t...

If you add 10 more to it, I can test if there's a limit.

I didn't test it, but I quickly created and emailed you Outc2-with-133-models.zip

Shouldn't be an issue.

64 face limit, wow... For example, Unreal Engine 1 has I think around 64000 polygon limit per model, so 64 sounds really pathetic... And the engines were created about the same time, 1997... EDIT: No wait, it actually seems that the actual polygon limit of UE1 is 2147483648 - almost unlimited (or, ...

will wait for next step in development =) about 64 faces... does it mean that we can do complicated models with more than 200-300 faces? or there still will be a limit of models per 1 map? The original game has huge models broken up into smaller ones. There's a tower near the hive in the middle of ...

does it worked? I downloaded the temple.zip model, but I haven't tried it yet. I still have problems in my texture coordinates, as you have probably noticed from the screenshots I have posted of your models. The other issue is that I still haven't written the code to automatically break a model wit...

sending new model... warp portal that i made of fountain =) also include 3 different exported models with differ MTL options - try if at least 1 of them will work. if one works - tell me the number of this model. here it is - http://slil.ru/28755999 Your options didn't really affect the mtl file. O...

I manually split the test model up into three parts and tried to load it with a slightly different texture (autolod wouldn't generate a palette for the bitmap you sent). http://picasaweb.google.com/mkienenb/MMLevelEditor#5445721025672581314 http://picasaweb.google.com/mkienenb/MMLevelEditor#54457210...

Hedra model import snapshot #2

http://picasaweb.google.com/mkienenb/MM ... 9851218722

I used the same texture for both materials, and the texture setup is mostly working at this point.

I am 90% done with importing models into the MM6 data format. The biggest hurdle still left is computing the face bitmap texture du and dv and the texture coordinate u and v list. It looks to me like it has very little to do with the original model's texture coordinates (at least in majority of the ...

Ok. I finally have something that's at least visible and the general right shape/texture for the hedra import. Here's an in-game snapshot. http://picasaweb.google.com/mkienenb/MMLevelEditor#5445377731996778114 I used "TesW" instead of the solid color material__26. The "test" mode...

Well, the good news is that I've now imported both models: test and hedra.

They look reasonable enough in the editor.

But they don't quite work in the game yet. They don't crash the game -- they just show up as submerged glimpses in the game engine.

It's a start

I can now cut & paste bmodels from one map to another map. Here's a game snapshot with the four-piece model for the tower in OutA1 (hive map) copied over to Oute3 (new sorpigal).

there are many options while exporting...i could pick up wrong options =) Ok. =) See if you can find an .obj export option that saves the bitmap file name as part of the material. An easy way to check is to look at your .mtl file when you are done and find the "map_Kd xxxx.bmp" line defin...

Thanks! It appears that it's download only, though. :( So download it and burn it to a cd :) As far as I know, the only CD compilation was the MM6 Limited Edition, which the Good-Ole-Games version is based upon. So the only thing you won't get is a) The holographic CDs b) paper copies of the MM6 ma...

i'm not sure what you mean here "map_Kd xxxx.bmp"... 2 materials in model but only 1 map. another one was just a simple black color (maybe and enter?). I was not sure that it was needed. BTW, map that i included was extracted from MM6. Your .obj file contains references to materials liste...

try this one... http://slil.ru/28746130 Thanks. Hedra.zip looks like a good test for a single-model import when I read through the text files. But it has two materials, and only one bmp in the zip, and again, there's no mapping map_Kd xxxx.bmp to get to the bitmap from the material definitions. Is ...

Mike, Have ya tried to use some of the objects from MM7/MM8 as the imports or are they formatted differently? BDJ Well, MM7&MM8 formats for models are very similar, but a little different. I could probably add MM7 & MM8 support, but I don't want to dilute my efforts yet at this point since ...

I would love to get a hold of some Obj files so I can test building some City maps... :) Well, there's no public release yet of the new MMLevelEditor, but you can check it out from cvs and build it yourself. From there, you can manually export each-and-every building model that you're interested in...
