General Question Galaxy Development

[MJR]

Your ship is already massive so if you want to have 8 XR;s you might want to keep it that big.

 

[The Shadow]

ok i'll try it, i just need to add some docking ports

the reason i ask is because libers mesh is alot smaller. i could not even fit a DG in it. but now i've made it too big trying to fit those XRs in it. and when i tried to make it smaller in Shipedit, it made it 10 times bigger. how do i make it smaller?

never mind, i figured it out

 

[MJR]

Lol. Just take your time.

 

[liber]

Use scale option in anim8tor.
To check and compare convert delta glider into object with msh2obj and import for compare.

 

[MJR]

What do you have left other than the docking ports?

 

[The Shadow]

only the exhaust as far as i know.

i used to be able to use Mesh Wizard to convert to mesh to anim8or but now Mesh Wizard won't open, keep getting "runtime error 76"

 

[MJR]

Download VC+2008 redistributional package. Try that. What do you mean the exhaust? The P_STREAM position?

 

[The Shadow]

just where the exhaust shows up on the ship.

 

[MJR]

Oh ok. How are you doing with it? Having any problems?

 

[The Shadow]

it's going a little slow. my organization is confusing and i don't understand the VC++ redistributable package. it's scattered all over my C drive, and i doubt thats where it belongs

 

[MJR]

Get it from microsoft download center. After that just press run and it will install for you.

 

[The Shadow]

i already had it, but like i said it's messed up.

i downloaded it again and ran it but i only said "repair" and "uninstall." using repair did not help. so for now i cannot use Mesh Wizard.

but i'll keep on working with the mesh to get it the right size

 

[MJR]

What is your decimal symbol, a comma or period?

 

[The Shadow]

uh... i thought they were decimal points, and that periods represented decimal points.

 

[MJR]

Go to language settings on the control panel and press customize. Make sure that it is a dot and not a comma. If that does not change anything then trouble shoot with Ar81.

Did you save the mesh wizard to a folder or did you press run and just used the exe. file?

 

[The Shadow]

saved mesh wizard to a folder.

and i think i'll take a look at those language settings, but i'm pretty sure that decimal points are periods

 

[MJR]

What is the exact error message.

 

[The Shadow]

"Runtime error 76

path not found"

 

[MJR]

Scale it down with the program you were using then. Then I'll see how you are doing with your addon. Is your thrust and exhaust right?

 

[The Shadow]

haven't had time, i'll work on it when i can
