Texas_DPS Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 do you need sketchup to download and use their sketches for zmodler?- Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Not sure what your talking about, scketch up is much easier to learn but it can be a real pain to get them into v3o sometimes. If you work with scketch up i suggest exporting it as 3ds, open the 3ds using zmodeler1. Save as a zmodeler file. Open the zmodeler file in zmod2. In zmod 2, export as v3o.

Texas_DPS Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 if you go to sketchup.com you can look at other things people have made. I would like to use some of the vehicles there in my personal mod. you can download their stuff but I dont know if I can put it stright into zmod2 or do i need sketchup to put it into zmod2? I will be getting zmod here in a few days and was wondering about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Yes you need sketch up because its the only thing that can read the files as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_DPS Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 and i guess you have to pay the full 400 plus dollars to export it as a v3o?- Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 24, 2009 Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 Didnt realize it was that much but i would guess you do. :-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_DPS Posted May 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2009 i guess i could pay someone to change stuff into v3o, lol.- Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xplorer4x4 Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Im sure there are people here that would do it for free.And heres soemthing to consider. Zmod only needs to be purchased to import files, but i believe it can export regardless. I could be wrong, Anyways the point is you can use zmod to create and export units untill you decide weather you can be a modeler or not. You can always save your models as zmodeler files and open them this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jab16 Posted May 28, 2009 Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 kind of funny i was just about to ask if you finished a firetruck but i did not want to double post LoL. Nice work really good i like how the white looks on that red. Speaking of red was that a preset red or did you make it cause it looks nice?Keep it up your fan, Jab16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_DPS Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2009 yeah, i only did that one so far. i am working on the booster (usfs engine) right now. that red came from about an hour of playing with the red scale. its pretty close to the top right of the red, but not quite.questions, are you going to do the austin airport police and do you want the skin of that amr amb?i was going to make you the austin airport police just for fun, also cause these dfr trucks are killin me and it makes me feel better to help another texan out.- Jonps, i guess we are eatch others fans, you got me started and the dallas personal mod with the dps and austin pd pic. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
