Hi all.

I currently model German items in another program, and would like to learn what is necessary to model of SHIII,

attached are a few shots to let you know a few items I made. Format is Gmax. but would love to learn what format is needed, and how to write the necessary files, and animations. Model currently only for Aurans trainz program.

Type XXIII

Also have bibers, S-100 class high detals and others, thanks all

Welcome U-94!

The 3D format used in SHIII is .obj, inside .dat files in the Sea folder. The program Pack3d is used to export and import .obj from / to the .dat, and also clone existing units. Make a search in this forum using the keyword Pack3d to get started.

Nice Models!

Hi, and welcome, mate! Models looks great, and the community needs "fresh blood" sometimes (no disrespect to the other modders, they are all doing an excellent job keeping this game alive!)!!
