datas Howto

Postby agritor » Mon Mar 10, 2008 10:03 pm

Hi all!
I would like to find documentation about the datas of Nexuiz.
I am interseted by
- howto convert my models to Nexuiz
- where to find doc about the file-formats of Nexuiz
- also how to modify the current models and maps of Nexuiz, but I guess the answers of the two previous questions will answer to this one :)

currently I've only seen that the datas can be opened with unzip,
about the images I know how to modify it, the IMP I use is GIMP,
about the 3D files I don't know where to start. The 3D modeling software I use is Blender. I guess there are scripts to convert Nexuiz files to and from .blend?

thanx

No, the models were made with 3D Studio Max, and Blender does not support the .smd format that was used to create the zym files.

However, since 2.4, new player models can be made as a single .md3 format model, which Blender can export well using a script.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.
