XSI ZETools

[sereja2]

Unfortunately, your new versions, still can't export anim, or import anything.
XSIZETools_11_11_02_r4, was the best of them... At least it works.
Well, here the all types of errors:

[ANDEWEGET]

I'll take a look at all those .msh files which didn't work tomorrow.
@sereja: The first two errors should be fixed easily. Which .msh did you try to import when the third error happened?

[sereja2]

Which .msh did you try to import when the third error happened?

I copy and paste, first random msh, from near by open folder... I guess it was my custom "Nar Shaddaa tv" model.

[ANDEWEGET]

Did you export it with my exporter or Pandemics?

[sereja2]

Did you export it with my exporter or Pandemics?

None of them. All of my models was exported with MshEx... So, you mean, it is possible to import, only stock models from assets? I didn't check it yet, but anyway, it is sad, if that so...

[Maveritchell]

Did you export it with my exporter or Pandemics?

None of them. All of my models was exported with MshEx... So, you mean, it is possible to import, only stock models from assets? I didn't check it yet, but anyway, it is sad, if that so...

MshEx's exporter isn't complete - it doesn't include all the data that Pandemic's exporter does. As a result, you can't import those models back in (Rep's Meshtool can't even import them).

[ANDEWEGET]

Pretty much.
I believe MshEx writes one chunk in a wrong format which shouldn't be the problem tho(but maybe it is, the importer is not that robust yet). Most likely he uses other chunks to store the polygon information. My importer can't read those(NDXL and NDXT). The engine can read them but afaik they were created for the PS2 engine. Xbox and PC seem to be using STRP chunk. It's possible to convert between them but that's a low priority for me.
Pandemic exported and ZETools exported should work. I dunno about MSH viewer .msh files.

[CressAlbane]

I can check Msh viewer files for you when I get home.

[Cleb]

I got my error thing, but it's really long (over 60,000 charachters) and I can't find textbin.com or whatever because the internet says it doesn't exist. Maybe I should post half of it(Its very repetitive)?

[ANDEWEGET]

Cool.
If everything goes according to plan I should be able to fix serejas errors by tomorrow, depending on what keeps some weights for some models from importing it could take a bit longer for that.
@ cleb: 60k?
Have you tried the version I released yesterday? If you have just post the first 20 lines or so.

[Cleb]

Yay it worked! The new ZETools, I mean. It exported my model and I got it ingame and everything even though the collision is offa nd its really gitchy but that's probablly my fault. I'm just so happy that I got my model in game! Thank you thank you

[ANDEWEGET]

Groovy.

Changelog:

• Import: Fixed weights with deformer index 0 overwriting each other.
  Import: Added import logging to a text file(XSIZETools\\import_log.log).
  Import: Cloth doesn't break enveloping and export anymore.
  Import: Added 'MYTP' as chunk. .msh files exported with MshEx could work now.
  msh2_crc: Now using the _subprocess module for STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW and SW_HIDE constants. Should fix error on some python distributions where those constants don't exist in subprocess.
  Import: Added MshImportError exception.

First entry fixes walker main bodies not being weighted properly.
Third fixes ARC Trooper and Sith not importing correctly.
Fourth might fix .msh files from MshEx not importing at all.
Fifth should fix your animation export/import errors sereja.

The importing process will be logged to XSIZETools\\import_log.log now. On handled errors (or exceptions I throw) a window will pop up telling you to check that log file for the error. That happens only when the error can be expected.
When applying the death animations to the AT-AT and AT-TE some of their parts(head and maincannon) float around... Have to check if that's done by the importer or the actual data in the .msh file...

I'll release r1 today or tomorrow.

Added r1 to the first page.

All models you mentioned, Ace, import fine. I have to see if I can do anything about the misplaced edges. Maybe triangulate every face, even if it has just 4 sides.

BTW, Safe and Debug import only change the function called when calculating CRCs so they won't have any effect on geometry or hierarchy problems.

EDIT: Removed the file. Have to fix something with the exporter.

Added r2 to the first page. Noticed a problem when the exporter actually found a BBox model and with scaling.
Changelog:

• Export: Fixed scale.
  Export: Fixed per-model BBox.
  Export: Now automatically calculating global BBox.

BBox is now being calculated from the selection on export. In all tests the result equaled the BBox from the Pandemic exporter. As the controls in UI aren't needed anymore I moved the two anim checkboxes to that place. The window is now 30 px less high!

[Tears2Roses]

what is BBox? And what does it do?

[sereja2]

Just check it... No, still is not works :

what is BBox? And what does it do?

Bounding box. Big blue box that encompasses models in Zero Editor, to put it simply. It controls the model's visibility and point of origin sorta: the model is visible only when any part of the bounding box is visible to the camera.

RIP old message by the hands of not-working copy&paste. Most important part of the message: MshEx does a lot of stuff wrong on which my importer heavily depends => won't be supported.

Added r3. This hopefully should work now...

Hmm... This time, I got error, only when try export anim:

Funny: all exported msh, with all versions of ZETools, are always invisible in Zero Editor, and I have to hex edit them, to see...

[ANDEWEGET]

What do you have to hex edit? The FLGS chunk?
Weird that that error shows up now... I didn't make any changes to the anim export. I'll take a look at it tomorrow.
At least we're down to one animation error...

[sereja2]

What do you have to hex edit? The FLGS chunk?

I am use my "universal" hex editor code:

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code]33 33 33 3F 33 33 33 3F 33 33 33 3F CC CC CC 4C 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 3F 9A 99 99 3E 9A 99 99 3E 9A 99 99 3E 00 00 80 3F 00 00 80 40 41 54 52 42 04 00 00 00 00 00 00 00[/code]

It should be pasted before TX0D on each texture. Usualy, I am use it, to make models "shiny" (specular), but this code, strong enough, to kill any "flag bug". :jango:

[ANDEWEGET]

What you do is change Diffuse Color Alpha to... very much and the Specular Decay/Gloss/Shinyness to 4. All exporters(Pandemic SWBF1 and Pandemic SWBF2) export colors in a range from 0.0 to 1.0. So changing alpha to over 1.0 shouldn't make any difference. For me it really doesn't make any difference. I can see models exported with the ZETools just fine in both Zero Editors.
Changing the Gloss value doesn't make any difference for me either. I tested 0, 1, 100, 300 and 1000 and none of them changed anything. BTW, specular only worked for me when I either had the Rendertype Specular(4) enabled or the 5th-place-after-ATRB specular enabled. I only tested changing Gloss in SWBF2 though...

I fixed that anim export error, too.

r4 up.
