I have some experiences with Counter Strike mapping so I will explain. HL uses WAD files to store textures. You can use WALLY to work with WAD files...




When you are creating a map in VHE, you have option to include WAD file directly to BSP file. And I figured out, that NOESIS only can show textures on maps, which have WAD files included in their BSP file. It's beacouse NOESIS can't work with .WAD files, it can work only with textures stored in .BSP files.

Also zmodeler2 works well to import.obj and it's fully compatible with Zmodeler 1  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/wink@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">




EDIT: No, it won't :cheer:




Okay, I successfully exported Estate map. But on some maps (such as CS_ASSAULT) NOESESIS don't show textures. Maybe I'll prevent it by creating my onw .WAD files.

Thank You, Kirov, I'll try it right now, I'll just download 3DSmax 7 'cause it seems to bee much simplier than 2012 :cheer:

That's great  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">  But what about scales? I've tried to export map directly from VHE and scale was about 1000x larger in Mafia :cheer:




So, when I use this tutorial, is it necessary in Zmodeler to do whole UV mapping and material assigning from whole beginning, or I can just assign textures to materials and they will fit perfectly?

Thanks  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">  I only need to insert dam model to Zmod, becaouse dimensions and shapes of interior which I'm gonna create.




I also realized, how to convert scene from VHE to Mafia.




I created scene in VHE, then I exported it as a .DXF, imported .DXF into 3DSmax, exported as a .3DS and the opened it in Zmodeler. So complicated...

I made some research, and I decided... I only need to insert model of dam (prehrada01) to Zmodeler and made interior around it. Can you do this for me, please?  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">




okay, I tried to rip scene with 3D ripper DX but it's always deformed, rotated or in very bad scale...

I'll try it. But it's comlicated for me, cause I'll have to retexture it and whole scene will be one big object  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

So first, I'm trying to create interior of dam in contryside. I think, that best way is to open FREEKRAJINANOC scene.4ds, delete everything expect of dam and objects around it, and model interior in Zmodeler.




But, I unlocked 4DS, but Zmodeler still don't want to import it  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">  It does nothing for five minutes with CPU load on 100%  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

Hey Kirov, I want to ask you something, if you don't mind  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">  I'm going to try modelling some interiors. I have so much experiences with Valve Hammer Editor, I also tried modelling terrain in it and it was awesome. Is there a chance to connect VHE and Zmodeller?




And also, is there any software (instead of Zmodeler) which can natively work with Mafia 4DS files? I'd like to create new scene, but I need some parts of city and countryside, which are stored in their scene.4DS files. But Zmod always crashes, when I'm trying to load that big files into it.

Yeah that would be great, I've already read on mafia.czech-games that you are going to write manual for this tools. I only need to delete some patches for peds  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

One little question, will it also be available do manage pedestrians? Or it can manage only traffic?

I have some bad news again. I don't know, if it's my fault, but everytime I play "New year party", everyone in the bar starts shooting at me without reason right after spek with Morello  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">

That jokes about 2K are killing me :cheer:  :lol:

OH F*CK !!! That's awesome! :cheer:

Every time, I try to enter hotel, game will just crash durign loading. Tested on both 1.0 and 1.2 versions and under Windows XP, Windows 7, other PC, all the same  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">




SHIT, I've tried also copy the files from part one to Mafia direction, but without any effect  <img src="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad.png" alt="" data-emoticon="" srcset="/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/sad@2x.png 2x" width="20" height="20">  Why is this happening?
