em4fun Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 ami is wrong.SketchUp ProLoad the modelFile > Export >3dsOpen 3dsmax RegisterdImport > the 3ds fileIf you have imprted, go to export and export again as 3dsThen open zmodeler registerd, and import the second 3ds. (exported from 3dsmax)you cant export 3ds form Sketchup directly in zmodelerand for the textures: dont use in sketchup COLORS only photos or the basic textures, if you export in sketchup, then you export atomaticly the texture formats, you must place them in the same map of the model, then open zmodeler and go to materials and you see a list of materials, but without texture. now edit the materials. the materials have the same names as the textures, like thismaterials: textures:cabine cabine.ddswheels wheels.ddsinterior interior.ddsso add the textures to the materials and now you model have a skin. now export to v3o and do some editor work(watch out the normals must stand in good direction) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
