Looking for DTS exporter for 3DS 9.0

by David Ridge · in Torque Game Engine · 03/12/2007 (12:52 pm) · 9 replies

I downloaded "Dts_max_allversions.zip" to get the plugin for 3DS but the plugin for version 9.0 was not included. I also tryed the version 8 plugin but it will not work with version 9.0.

Can anybody help?

V9 _again_ changed internals regarding plugins. I was able to compile it with the plugin source and the 9 SDK a few months back. As none of my myriad other commercial plugins would work, I've since reverted back to V8.

Does that mean there is NO plugin for version 9?

Can someone provide the updated files for these exporters?

I have been trying to compile the max4 exporter using the max 9 SDK with some code changes but can't link them together like crazy!

*shamelessly calls for:
"Help!"

I've upgraded to TGE 1.5.1.
I'd like to know how to point the source of max2dtsExporterPro to the Max 9 SDK?
I quickly need a Max 9 version of this exporter, since I can only work on Max 9...
Is it difficult to do?

Thanks for any help :)

Compiling the "pro" exporter should be pretty straight forwards (compiling the older one is a bit more difficult, but if you just need that exporter it's available at the artists page), as far as I know you just have to point your compiler to the max9 sdk instead of the max7 one. (In visual C go into the properties for the exporter project and change the "additional include directories" and "additional library directories").

Ok I'll try that! Thank you Magnus! ^^

Edit: I managed to compile the exporter for Max 9, and it seems to work. I'll test it and then release it as a resource.

Here you can download the Max 9 version of max2dtsExporterPro.

I haven't modified anything in the source code, I just compiled it pointing to the Max 9 SDK, thanks to Magnus's help :)
So if you find bugs, sorry I can't help you. I encourage you to report bugs on the project's Plan page: www.garagegames.com/index.php?sec=mg&mod=resource&page=view&qid=10894.

Edit: I've just corrected the typos in the dts_nodes.ini file.
