Xplorer4x4 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 How can any one help if they dont know what the original file type it and what you wanted it converted to. It could mean covnert a rar to a zip, a txt to a doc, a bmp to jpg, png to jpg,etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddieman Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Well this is what I am looking for someone to do. I built a building using sketchup and I built a seperate roof for it (it is a firestation) and I am looking for someone to convert it for me to a file that I can put into a map for EM4. I would like to replace the LA Mod Firestation. If you are able to help in anyway I would greatly appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Sketch up models do not convert to EM4 models easily. In-fact I have yet to see a mod that has actually put skp models in to EM4. The polygon counts sky rockets when you convert. The axis gets screwed up. More things I cant recall. Everyone interested in modeling is better off learning to use zmodeler2. You can get a free version on there site that will allow you to create models. The learning curve is much steeper but in the long run it saves you a big headache.

Eddieman Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 I have Zmodeler2 that I paid for and I have Rhino and Sketchup. I can not get the hang of Zmodeler2 at all. The tutorials and videos go to fast and hard to understand. Do you have any suggestions or would you be willing to help me out?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Read the tutorial posted in the last thread you made about building models. Its 3 steps. It doesnt get any easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddieman Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Did that already. I have it ready but I am trying to figure out how to put it in the game so I can see how it looks. I am sorry if it seems like I am asking for alot of help or information but I got skinning, building and converting down pat but it is trying to get it into the game.

Eddieman Posted August 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 Could someone please tell me what I need to put in the Notepad for scripting for my firestation? I have a v30 file for thefirestation for the floor and roof. What I do not have is a dds file for this as I do not know what to add or how to do it. What do I put in the .V30 Notepad Script?

Xplorer4x4 Posted August 26, 2010 Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 From the rules page:* Double posting, miss-usage of the font sizes and caps-lock writing is not tolerated and will result in a warning.You dont do anything with the v3o in notepad, v3o is a model file created by zmodeler. You do the UV Mapping in zmodeler. I think you need to stop and read some of the tutorials in the tutorials section and things will be more clear to you.

Eddieman Posted August 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2010 for double posting and using a capital letter in a sentence. I have looked at the tutorial and I will go from there. If I have any other questions I will post them as needed. Please close this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
