Some import problems
Fri Feb 02, 2007 11:34 pm

  • Well, it seems that my copy of GTKRadiant does not see .ase files, which is necessary because my blender md2 & md3 scripts are broken. I think Im doing the right thing, but just in case, here are the screens -->

    Maybe this is the problem?

    Code: Select all
    Loaded Texture: "C:/Program Files/GtkRadiant 1.5.0/bitmaps/notex.bmp"
    OpenGL window configuration: colour-buffer = 32bpp, depth-buffer = 32bpp
    Unable to find default tag file C:/Program Files/GtkRadiant 1.5.0/nexuiz.game/shadertags.xml. No tag support.
    OpenGL window configuration: colour-buffer = 32bpp, depth-buffer = none


    Hmmm... come to think of it, the biggest problem is just that im a noob :roll: :?

  • Fishy. Can some other radiant 1.5 user verify the lack of .ase support in the import dialog?

    Regardless, Torus try entering *.ase in the dialog and then select the file. I will let ya select it.. the interesting bit will be if it shows up in the editor or not,
    HOF:
    <Diablo> the nex is a "game modification"
    <Diablo> quake1 never had a weapon like that.
    <Vordreller> there was no need for anything over 4GB untill Vista came along
    <Samua>]Idea: Fix it? :D
    <Samua>Lies, that only applies to other people.

  • Someone forgot to add ase in nexuiz.game (inside path/to/GtkRadiant 1.5.0/games). You can simply add ase yourself.
    Open up nexuiz.game in a texteditor and add ase in modeltypes (should be on line 20) e.g modeltypes="md3 mdl md2 ase"

    That seems to work for me.

    Sorry for my confusing English... it's late.

  • It seems that after doing what morfar said (thanks btw), Radiant does see my .ase, however it refuses to import it- gives me this error:

    Code: Select all
    WARNING: could not extract the relative path, using full path instead
    Model load failed: "C:/Documents and Settings/User/Desktop/maptry.ASE"
    entityCreate -class misc_model


    The weird thing is that .ase doesent seem to work in any app other than blender. For example, when I exported an .ase from blender into 3ds max, it did not work. However, when I saved then opened my map exported as a wavefront .obj, 3ds opened it without a hitch- BUT 3ds max could NOT OPEN an .ase that 3ds itself exported! :x :cry:

  • Thats what I thought, until I exported .ase from 3ds max (the programs' own fucking proprietary format) and it didnt work.) What would you suggest as proper modelling tools? I have 3ds max, its just more difficult to use than blender. If you mean maya, well, maya isnt much better. I used a friend's maya, and it turns out pretty much all support/exsistance of exporters of quake 3 formats (md2/md3/ase) ended at version 6. harumph. :evil:

  • Last time I imported a ASE model in Radiant I used 3dsmax 8 or something... It was a simple cube ;) ASE is a 3dsmax invention, so it should be okay to use that :P
    Maybe your model is too complex?

  • After searching some (alot), I found this interesting tidbit:

    Subject: [Gtkradiant] GTKRadiant Bug Report


    This bug report was submitted from [IP Address] using the Bug Report =
    Submission Form on the QERadiant Website at 03:07:54 CDT Jul 22, 2004.

    BUG REPORT

    CPU/RAM/Operating System: AMD 3000+ XP _ 1GB Geil PC3200 Memory Dual =
    Channel_ WinXP Pro Updated Fully
    Hard Drive Space: 17 of 600gb
    Video Card/OpenGL Drivers: PNY TI4600 128mb latest nvidia
    Version of GTKRadiant: 1.4.0 (SD ET)

    Error:
    When loading models the match path has a extra / before etmain.
    The compare function to strip relative path is problematic, works fine =
    for RTCW md3 in mode.


    below is console output.


    vfsExtractRelativePath: C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy =
    Territory/etmain/models/mapobjects/xlab/cart.md3
    cleaned path: c:/program files/wolfenstein - enemy =

    WARNING: could not extract the relative path, using full path instead
    ERROR: PicoLoadModel: Failed loading model C
    LOADED: models/mapobjects/xlab/cart


    Cause of Error:
    Run in Enemy Territory Mode
    Right Click 2D
    Misc misc_model
    when you browse for path it gets it


    Only solution, which is a pain is to goto entities and manually adjust =
    key pair to relative.


    My output is almost identical. So- Im gonna try a few different builds of radiant, maybe a different one works. If not, its no big deal. Ill just stick to conventional shit, instead of my whacky ideas. :D Thanks for all the help :mrgreen:
