Great work Sansal... Keep it up! :up:

I am on the way, to modify the southampton/fiji-model for making the german k-class cruiser.

I was able to lower the superstructure with wings3D (hard work picking all superscruture-polygons) and get the ship working. Unfortunately, i have three problems:

- The objects stay on their former positions

- the deck-textures change their positions

- and what about the reflect- and shd model?

The game crashes when exiting - i think this is because of the shd and reflect files. Would it be enough to copy the changed model file and import it as SHD and reflect-file?

Here a screenshot as she looks like with the objects on their former positions. And below a photoedit as she should look like.

Thanks for advise, Seeadler. It worked.

Heh heh

What worked? Are the 3d textures corrected now? In other words, if we "normalize," will our textures (generally) be correct using the Sansal tool? I'm at work and won't have a chance to try this at home until at least Friday, but I'm curious.... :hmm:

EDIT: I think the Vosper answers my question! :up:

Yes, this work for my testing type XIV.

The deck textures, by now, need to be reworked in a new tga because the tool only works with one texture, the first in the dat. You can do a new tga, based in the original, but more great.

I can't work in all at the same time :shifty:

Hi everyone.......exciting stuff going on!

I'm staying up late tonight to play with this stuff......I'll pay for it tomorrow!

OK, I looked for this:

in Wings 3d......it does have an invert function, and it did change my BB Sao Paulo....but it merely made it so that the "shark teeth" could be seen only on the opposite side.....

Is it because my models are just crappy? I am just starting out with all of this, so I don't know all the "ins and outs" yet, but I have learned a lot! I'll keep on plugging away!

:up:

:up: Well, nice. I will give it a try!

Do you think it is possible to import an "empty" file as object to replace/delete objects?

You do not need face inversion when you are working with models from SH3. It is only for new, external models. There must be something else you are doing wrong.

In Wings3D under menu View select "Show Normals" and ensure that the small blue line on the faces you modified are shown to the outside of the model. If it's so than something else is going wrong during your editing session.
