i added some cannons and a steering-wheel on the ships deck in Maya, but i dont know how to export it into gm format...... i tried everything, even exporting it into vrlm format and than to gm with the tool but nothing works <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />

 

[Pieter Boelen]

You managed to IMPORT her in Maya then?

She looks good. And where did that US flag come from? We might need one of those at some point. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />o)

Hi,
Try Blender.......export the model from Maya as a wavefront obj , Import it into Blender...re-assign the textures etc. again and then export it as vrml2. It's not the ideal method , but it will work. It works for characters anyway.
Maya 5 uses vrml1 ...Tool needs it as vrml 2 (vrml 97)

BTW .... Blender v.2.41 seems to work best.
Cheers,
damski

[Pieter Boelen]

Thanks for the flag then. Hopefully we'll be able to work it in one day. Looks good in the screenshot. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" />

I once managed to export a ship from Maya, but that was a ship that Akella themselves had already put in .mb format.

 

[Pieter Boelen]

I just tried to find that USA flag in your FTP folder, but couldn't seem to find it. Could you please upload it? I'm considering trying to put the US into the game, but I need the flag to check if it works. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Did we ever add this ship to Alpha 8?

 

[Thomas the Terror]

Nope, but it is still on the ftp though <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

 

[Pieter Boelen]

We'd better do it then. We've got the USA, so we'd better have their ships too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
