[Request] 3ds max Zms Importer/Exporter

[BlueEyes]

Ok. ill be perfectly honest. Sparks Zms Veiwer. sucks for converting things to or from Zms, it does things like skrew up mapping and it cant convert bones. i have nothing against the program, its a fairly useful program, but its time consuming and inefficient, but its the only thing we have.

So heres what im asking. Anyone out there who can code a 3ds max plugin. PLEASE code one that imports/exports to .zms files, im sure you would make so many people greatful.

Cheers, BlueEyes

I suggest you get the 3ds Max SDK and attempt it for yourself using the file format information provided in the Client Editing Section. It shouldn't be that hard if you want to import/export _only_ zms .

Good luck

You would want perhaps to try with blender first if you don't have 3ds ^_^
Blender is free, plugins are based on pythons (I don't like python but it's due to their indent) which is an easy langage and no SDK is needed.
In the opposite, 3ds is not free, you need a c++ (or something to do a DLL) and you need 3DS SDK too. If you're a coder it'll be ok, else, I wish you good luck too

Ive tried blender and i hated it. mainly because all my skills lie in 3ds max and blender is just too diferent. thats why i requested for someone to make a 3ds one xD because im not a coder.

Sorry don't count me in then, there's no way I install SDK+VS+3ds just for that.

I wasnt counting on a specific person i was just asking if someone could do it. because it would help like maybe half the community

I'm not sure, remember:

Sparks Zms Veiwer. sucks for converting things to or from Zms,

So why would he do the same "suck" code on 3DS

(Irony power).

[Sethanye]

well the current converter does suck a bit no offense spark, i respect what ur doing
