Thank you for the tip.

Yes I know. I'm learning everything from myself (and tutorials, and advice from other members) about SH3, S3D, JSGME, mission editor, Wings3D, Audacity, Paint.net etc. for now several years. I've just given up with hex edition ...

Don't be sorry for your opinions.

Skill to work with a Hex Editor is very important...

To be the best you can be at Modding?
Hex editing is the Master of all tools and skills.
Anvart is one of my teachers.
I do not think there is anyone else left here at SubSim that know the SH files and hex editing as well as the two of us.


I can do things with 010 Hex editor that S3D nor other released tools can do.
I can do things faster then S3D and other tools can do.
Time is money to me. Given a free tool that limits me?
I'll pay for the tool that does not limit me in any way.

Maybe I did not understand correctly your phrase... but, from January 2006 to mid-2009, for the creation of my mods, I used hex editor and my working code for unpacking and packing of 3D models and some controllers.
Now I use a hex editor only when I can not do without it.

My point exactly.
How would you change crew animations?
S3D will not do that on it's own.

3ds Max - Motionbuilder, Maya, iClone, CLO Enterprise (cloth) and so on...

You know S3D will not import them properly without hex editing.
