Newbie Questions

[Johnbeyer]

Hello all. I hope this is the right thread area, i couldn't really find a thread which had questions in it.

I'm totally new to making ages for uru, though I'm a modeller in 3ds max for awhile.

My question is , that I heard there was a 3ds max plugin for it, is it still there?.

and, which other programs do i need to let my age work? . do i really need blender for attaching the textures and collision or is it possible to do this in Max to [ whith the plugin ].

I saw and read the tutorials here, which are good, but i still had a few doubts.

Hope I'm not doing anything wrong,

John

well, you should be able to create full ages in 3Ds max (correct me if I'm wrong guys) once the pluggin is released, the only reason we use blender for most of our ages, is because it's free

[Johnbeyer]

Hm, i see, but, right now, I'd make my complete island within max, export it to blender, attach textures & collision, then off to pyprp and URU libary manager and im done?

[Justintime9]

That'd probably work (tho, I've never used 3Ds max, so I may be wrong)

Only 1 way to find out

HA! it seems i wont be making ages at all! i dont have uru complete chronicles, just the first one and to Dni lol.

ah well.

[Justintime9]

hmm... well, I'm pretty sure you can do it with just URU to D'ni, or ABM, try it out

If you have ABM, then to have everything else that is in Complete Chronicles you just need this.

Edit: Just found out your in Holland! That makes things different. The above links site doesn't ship internationally :\ . At least you know what you need to find.

Wait... so why does he need POTS?

[BAD]

He doesn't but it is fun to play.

Here is an international shipper!

Wait... so why does he need POTS?

Because the ULM will only work with POTS. For most people that is the only way to visit the ages they create.
