Commander Rasseru Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I know this was talk before in other topics.... But not clearly stated how to do it?How will I turn SketchUp File to a V3O file? So I can add new buildings and cars.Or what other programs thats easy to use like SketchUp? That I could also import SketchUp Files.Any help will be nice since I have to do this by myself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em4fun Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 you need sketchup pro + registred verision of 3ds max + registred version of zmodeler,open sketchup pro and export the model to 3ds, than import the 3ds file in 3ds max and export again to 3ds, then import the second 3ds in zmodeler and uv-map him, than export to v3o in zmodeler!!

Commander Rasseru Posted November 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 noI would think their would be one thing you don't have to pay. Every thing has some kind of freeware... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick the greek Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Unfortunately no. You have to buy this **** called Zmodeler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Rasseru Posted May 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Was EM3 and EM4 made with Zmodeler in the first place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 I think hoopah or mikey kind of touched on that issue before. If memorey serves me right they probably did not use Zmodeler. They either had a plug in for somethings like 3ds or had custom software to do it with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyPI Posted May 21, 2009 Report Share Posted May 21, 2009 No chances are they do not have Zmod to develop these games, probrably a program with a price tag of over 6,000 dollars and generally not available to most users... So you have to settle for what we do have, which would mean learning to use an app that can go easilly into 3ds so that zmod stands a chance of taking it without mutilating it.

Stan Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 I have now sketchup 7 pro + en 3ds pro but zmodeler is to expensive. Can i make a v3o. file without Zmoddeler registered?Yes sure... Zmodeler is way too expensive compared to Sketchup pro and 3DS Max, don't even tell me you bought them. Zmodeler only costs 40euro at this time. And Sixteen Tons probably used Maya Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosedmonkey Posted October 28, 2009 Report Share Posted October 28, 2009 Zmodeler is a very reasonable price, and well without the guy who coded it, there would be no Emergency mods, so I think you need to watch what your calling sh*t or expensive or what have you.3DS Max is usually prefered by game developers, it just seems what they've always used.Maya is the programme for the movie industry, and personnaly i majorly prefere it over 3DS Max.Both Maya and 3DS Max are massive commercial products that cost a lot more then Zmodeler, it feels good that there is a fairly good modeling suite I can afford to legally buy the license of, its no different then going from 3DS to Maya, you have to learn all the tools again with their new names and such, obviously its not as ergonomic as them though.As for sketch up, really its worth just learning to use Zmodeler for modding imo.

jab16 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 I could buy Maya, but there is no point to me, I beleve it is the person's skill not the program that makes the models great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just import the 3ds file into zmodeler and it works. I have pro sketchup on my computer and I can see if exporting it on 3ds on here will work on zmod. I mean I'll export it for you.
