Reality Factory

Alright, I dont adding model now. Now I create my world (models) in RFEditPro. I can create the open spaces, not room only?

P.S. Why do not answer?

Its kinda hard to understand what you are trying to ask (I understand the langauge barrier) also, this community loves to help fellow game developers in learning RF, but it gets a little anoying haveing to be the whole "manual".

Cheers mate!

I know, but you realy not understand what I say? I say - I will be create my world in the RFEditPro now. Becouse I cant adding my model (make in 3D Max) in RF! I have *.3dt model format, but RFEditPro cant import...

You cant import it directly into RF. You first have to get a program called milkshape, import your model into milkshape and export as a BDY. Once this is done, take the model and convert it into an .act using Astudio. And there ya go. And ya, I really dont understand what you are trying to say somtimes. But ill try to help ya anyway. Also, preferably, you model should be in 3DS format, not .3dt.

Get Milkshape Here: http://chumbalum.swissquake.ch/ms3d/download.html

Anim8or: http://www.anim8or.com/main/index.html (A very nice, and easy to learn modeling program that alows you to export in 3DS) ive been using it for almost 3 years now.

Hope this helps!
cheers

none of the 3dt exporters for programs work, you have to get it to .act, this can be done by severel ways and ryan mentiond one of them. look in the Reality Factory manual for importing models.

Thanx for hellp me guys! Ryan, I have allready Milkshape and I did that earlier (in the previous posts), but I make a mistake.
Scott, I shall be read RFManual again about Import models in RF...
Thanx again for hellping me!

its about a third down the list on the left side called "Forum Tips: Actor Creation" it gives the steps on how to get models into RF

then once that has been done you use either StaticEntityProxy or StaticMesh wich are entities further down the list

once you have your models from act studio put them in the media/actors folder.

if you follow these steps and it still dont work post again and i will link you to a thread with the solution (i will have to find it or else i would give it you now)

Я создал новый проект -> убрал пометку c "Use Project Directory" -> выбрал "3DS MAX (.max) -> добавил свою модель в формате *.max -> нажал кнопку Build, потом выдает ошибку.

Sorry I didn't respond. I was checking the Feature Request for your post. I didn't realized it moved.
Now where are you? Did you run any of the RF demos? Do you need help on using 3dMax and Milkshape?
Did you get the Panda DirectX importer for 3dMax? Have you been able to get any of your models in RF?
Give me a few answers on these, and I'll see if I can give you a little push.

He is saying that he modelled his work in RFEditPro and has a 3DT file saved. You now have to compile your level. In order to do that you need at least 2 entities. EnvironmentSetup and PlayerSetup.

You have to attempt to understand the book. I know there is a language barrier, but RF is an English product. Unless someone is willing to translate the entire manual into Russian, you're pretty much going to have no choice but to read the English manual. If you cannot or do not want to do this, then I'm not sure how English speaking posts will help you at all either. If you can understand the forum posts in English, you should be able to understand the manual to a certain degree. You have to try to help yourself here.

if that works.......
use
http://www.freetranslation.com/
or babel fish
http://world.altavista.com/
and use english to russian translator (I DONT KNOW RUSSIAN!)

Any luck RHzk? Did that translation work>

Thanx for Alta Vista! I got it! For .bdy I got it, but for .max I cant-it shows:

"Actor doesn't exist:
'sphere.NFO' out of date. (Doesn't exist)
Error: Did not locate 3DS MAX plugin: 'X:\Program Files\3D Studio Max 9.CPR\Autodesk\3ds Max 9\Plugins\NFOEXP.DLE'
Error: Plugin missing. Max export halted.
Error: unable to complete 3DS MAX script and export step for Make_Actor"

Sphere-it my model (sphere) make in 3D Max. But when I create in .bdy it work...
3DS MAX plugin work any on .bdy? Why not working for .max model format?

So, I got how make .bdy model and I have now 3 files its: sphere.act, sphere.apj and sphere.bdy. What do I need whith them?
Is anyone help me my friends?
(Is .bdy-OK. Is .max-not ok. )
P.S. I write this myself, without the translator. You realy want to help me and I purshiating (greatful) for this. Thanks you guys!

the dle file for max is only for 2.5 i think
there is no version for max 9 only below 8
if you have an act file made, put it in media/actors/ so you can use it
you use act models differently
for pawns
define it in pawn.ini
for level geometry
add a staticmesh entity then define the model in its properties
for weapon
define it in weapon.ini

Can Static Mesh pawns use scripts and stuff? I'm always adding it as Pawns
