XSI ZETools

[Spiret]

Works perfectly now. Thank you!

[Deviss]

Update 1.3.15

This should fix it.

cloth its fix too ?

I'm having trouble importing a weapon MSH that was exported using the Pandemic Tool a long time ago in late 2011. I'm using the latest version of the XSI ZETools. Here's the log:

I'll send you the MSH file in a PM.

@Deviss: No, I haven't found the source of the problem yet and I'm a bit limited on time right now.

@Marth: I sent you a PM.

It works here:

Hidden/Spoiler:

Softimage 7.5
XSI ZETools 1.3.0032

[ANDEWEGET]

I made some changes that weren't part of a release/had no version number bump which caused this. So the 0032 release still worked, but if you downloaded the repo directly you'd have this error.

Update 1.3.16

This should fix it however.

Update 1.3.17

This should fix it.

[Marth8880]

Transforms of collision primitives are incorrect when they're a child of a collision primitive that is also a child of another collision primitive.

Example of a simple hierarchy depicting what I mean

--collision primitive (correct SRT)
----collision primitive (correct SRT)
------collision primitive (incorrect SRT) <--

Pol1_bldg_radar_main02.msh, imported with the latest version (1.3.0034):

Hidden/Spoiler:

EDIT:

The scale and rotation values actually appear to import fine, but the translation values are still hugely offset.

[ANDEWEGET]

Could you check if there's a difference between cubes and cylinders/spheres? As in does it change if any/all of the parents are cube primitives?
I can't test right now.

[Anakin]

I made a simple 5-Edge Polygon and exported it with ZETools. I don't know what version it was and i cannot reproduce, since my XSI is broken again. But maybe you can reproduce.

I took the poly-painter (N) and made one 4 edge, one 5 edge and one 6 edge polygon to test my viewer. But for the 5 and 6 edge the tool says the file is broken. I took a look at it in an hexeditor:
...S_T__R_P____________________C_L__1_L
...5354 5250 0E00 0000 0500 0000 434C 314C 0000 0000

So as you can see the file says STRP is size 14, but it isn't, it is size 6 and the data is wrong, too.

4-edge polygons are no problem.

[AceMastermind]

I made a simple 5-Edge Polygon and exported it with ZETools.

ZETools only supports tris and quads.

[clonetrooper163]

So i wanted to try editing a mesh for this game and this is my first time and when i go to import any model this happens,Also does this tool support the importing of animations cause i also want to edit some of the animations.

Try "Ignore animation" when importing a model. Also the settings tab has a few settings you can play around with. With that, I usually only have "Weld boundary edges" and "triangulate" ticked.

You can import animations and export them using this tool.

Well i tried that and i still get the same error.

Also you know what the grenade throwing animation name is?

[ANDEWEGET]

I can import the same model just fine, but this is with Softimage 2015.
Do you have the latest version installed?
Does anyone else have this problem with Mod Tool 7.5?

No, I'm using Mod Tool 7.5 and I've never had issues with it.

[Gogie]

Overall I have to say Ande... This tool is absolutely amazing...

I gave up on modding years ago because I hadn't had an exporter, and ever since this has come out I've found myself unable to put modding down.

I definately owe all my recent success to you and this project of yours. Phenomenal work keep it up.

A few issues I've noticed: Bump / Specular (flag 28) seems to have some... unexpected results ingame (this is work aroundable by lowering specular value via bumpmaps alpha cannel) or by just using a specular map (and the check box) and render flag 27, so I've made due with it.

And cloth collisions don't seem to work (although we can kind of work without them by using cloth odf parameters, its just not the same)

I've also noticed classical methods of integrating collisions no longer works (I use the method posted on the Github where you use the -svbot- tage accordingly for its type) but I noticed primitive collisions no longer work via odf (example TerrainCollision = "P_Sphere")

Over all dispite these issues ive found it easy to work with and potentially a betteri nterface than the original. Good Job man keep up the good work.
