Excellent, Shadowspawn! Hopefully people will be able to make exporters & importers in all their favorite 3D tools.
All your hard work is much appreciated by we who can't afford 3D Studio MAX.

ok guys before you start i know most of your answers...( smile)
have checked all through the forums on newbies..
done new install of game patched to 1.1
installed editor as per instruction renamed the files
put the extra lines in user ini..
using launcher ,that loads both game and editor great, i can load editor .i can use editor( after a fashion at the moment ) but .......and you knew there would be a but ..when i use the joystick icon ,its says saving file blah blah ..then just sits on desktop screen doing nothing ..

opened xp firewall tried disablling it , still the same
tried setting port to 25001 still the same
only think i may have done wrong is when i choose to add a program to add a port to shoud i use thief 3 or theif3edit , and is there a name i have to use as it asks for a name and a port to use .
hoping for some help as i want to start getting back to next gen dromed fun

please obi wan your my only hope...
cheers guys

I have had mixed results using this:

for instance,

cherubface.tim converted ok :thumb:
STMiELEEgeneratorGDN generated an improper 3ds file (at least according to 3dsmax)

I tried editing the .e file to make the bitmap file name shorter, and shortening the name of the 3ds file, is there anything else I can try?

cheers

(Sorry about the necromancy)

Been converting more objects, with much more success :thumb: Once again, my thanks to Shadowspawn for doing this.

(Here are a couple of issues though:)

A few objects appeared to come through with just vertices (ie no surface). Example was MANexturretlow.tim (in Gables).

Also, collision shapes after the first one seemed to be dropped. A good example of this would be OQ1_Gable_Support1.tim which is probably intended to have quite a lot on collision volumes.
