WoW amazing!

Nice work. However, I have a question.

For what version of the game was this tool designed? -What structs did you use to build the M2?

PS. Did you get my PM yesterday?

[Tigurius]

3.x and I used my M2Lib, which I posted somewhere in this forum.
And yes, but it's Christmas in the Western Hemisphere, so I'm not that much time at my pc.

omg i love you .. gonna try this shit out for sure when i finished my new model <3

also that "why doesnt my model work with your converter" qeustion. for me most of the time my models didnt work with any wow converter is when I didn't triangulate my models. (its done in the 3d program you work in. Basicly what it does is change all the planes in your 3d model to triangles. so if people have that problem triangulate might just fix their problem .

he Tigurius the program keeps crashing on both of my computers. at one pc i just get the "program has crashed popup" the on from windows. and on my other pc the converter pops-up .. does nothing and closes again

any thougheds ?

the model i tryed to convert had 4 textures (jpgs) 1600 ish triangles

i did turn on 2 sided textures for 2 textures in 3ds max. Not sure if that has anything to do with it

cheers goshu

edit: so in the end i also tryed doing the convertion with just a simple box. and then i have the same problem. the progam crashes before it can do anything. I tryed changing material option etc to see if it makes any diffrents but nope no deal.

[Tigurius]

Öhm,
Try this version: File-Upload.net - ConverterMDX.zip

and you'll need .NET installed, because the MDXLib is written in .NET.

[Goshujinsama]

ah i didnt have .net installed. the converter is actaully doing something now thanks

[relaxok]

Tigurius, this is AMAZING!

I have a question for you though.. do you have any util that can convert FROM M2 to another format (directX X or MDX...) that can export the animations from the models?

I have NEVER seen an app that can do that.. basically the reverse of yours.. I would be surprise if you hadn't already made it..

If you haven't, I might be willing to pay you for going the other direction..

Please let me know!

What's .net? Is it microsoft .net Framework 3.5? I have that installed, but the exe just crashes everytime I click on it.

I really want to edit in my own animations for wow characters. So I have another question, how exactly does this program work? When it converts the mdx -> m2. Does it also make an .anim file? So that it replaces .anim files in WoW?
