Right click the file.
Select properties on the pop up menu.
There is a button that allows you to change what opens the file.
(You've associated it with Win Rar).
Select Java Platform.

This is my first attempt for modding

As I run Pack3D -> Get DAT in order to open NSS_Gato.dat in order to be able to edit the file with a 3D editor :
The file does not open ; (I have Java script)
can you help ?
Than
I have run Silent 3ditor (beta0.7) and generate a .DAE file ; Which software should I use to open it ?

Pack3D requires the Java runtime (not JavaScript). Make sure you use version 2 of Pack3D, as it's the most stable one. If it still doesn't extract the models chances are it can't read the dat-file... You may want to check if you have a 3D subfolder (I think?) in the folder where the .dat is located. That's where Pack3D extracts them to. You may have missed that.


As far as .DAE, you can use Max, Maya, Blender, and many other programs.

For Max and Maya, get the free plugin here:

Max: http://www.feelingsoftware.com/conte...65/79/lang,en/
Maya: http://www.feelingsoftware.com/conte...55/72/lang,en/

An obj importer/exporter for S3D will be released in a few weeks though which should simplify all this.

hi
Pack3D gives me this message in tiny script bottom right
" java.lang.NegativeArraySizeExeption "

another thing ; I have opened the NSS_porpoise.DAE with 3dsmax and than import it to Milkshape which I know better (and much more easy to handle) and there is no submarine cockpit ; I don't understand why ?

When pack3d gives me that error, sometimes it will work after I try 3-4 times in a row. It's very strange. If it keeps coming up, try reducing the # of polygons in your object, or check to see if any object faces are contorted into unusual shapes. I'm not sure why, but that seems to trigger errors.

I don't use 3dsmax, so unfortunately I can't help you with the other problem. If you don't mind working with a less complex program, you may want to try using Wings3d instead of 3dsmax.

There are 5 versions of Pack3D.
Not all work with every dat.
Do you have all 5?
