XSI ZETools

[CdtFox]

This error seems to occur before even starting the import. Looks to me like there is a problem with the path to your .msh file (like special characters), could you provide the full path to the .msh you're trying to open?
It also looks like you're using an older version of XSIZETools, make sure to upgrade to the latest one from here: https://github.com/Schlechtwetterfront/ ... s/releases (delete the old folder completely and unzip the new one)

Thanks for the answer, i discovered that when importing a .msh from a special hardrive i have this error, funny it happens only for that external disk.

Yeah i probably don't have the lastest one, i'll download it, i don't update these things very often thought.

///EDIT\\\

Hum, I'm unable to import one of the player model i made a while back. And this time i have the latest version of ZETool
Here is the log:

*Off Topic
Since I've sadly stopped my work in things of modding and turned into a silence modder, I've never noticed this tool to be honest.
I wanted to finish some old and long lost projects at my PC, but it doesn't mean I'll become that active in things of modding again.
I'm still wondering how many people do still mod for these two old games and they still do an impressive work, where I've thought, they are done now. We have seen everything.
In my opinion the games should be in retirement for now, but people do teach me that this isn't the case.
I guess, they seem to be unique and they got something what EA's Battlefront games will never have, because they don't provide this feeling what the old games do.

Back to topic:

I just wanted to know why Softimage 7.5 shows up an unexpected failure message if I press the ZE Tools export or import button.

Any solutions for this problem?
I've followed all the installations instructions so far.

[ANDEWEGET]

Open the script editor (Alt+4 if I remember correctly) and copy paste the exact error message here.

Okay, that's all.

# INFO : XNA.xsitemplate is up-to-date
# ERROR : 2006-CUST-MSHExport - Unexpected failure.
Application.MSHExport()
# ERROR : 2006-CUST-MSHImport - Unexpected failure.
Application.MSHImport()

Edit 30.12.2017:

Problem solved.
I've just cut the folder xsizetools from C:/users/%user%/Autodesk/Softimage_%version%/Addons/

To the Addons folder location of softimage itself:

C:/Softimage/Softimage_Mod_Tool_%version%/Addons

Now it works fine for me.

Nevertheless thanks.

[ANDEWEGET]

Glad to hear you got it fixed. That is a weird error...

[Ginev]

Similar thing happen to me when i export my models with the ZETOOLS.My export path was just in D drive and that cause ZETools to crash.However i created one folder in D drive and made the export path there and this time it worked.I do not know why ZeTools simply do not like some export paths

Hi,

I downloaded everything (Python 2.6, Pywin32, C++ 2015) and installed them in the default locations, but I can't get Python to show up as a script language.

Any ideas what's wrong?

[Jawa26]

Hello everyone,

I have the same problem as WorstMB2Player.

Also I was not even able to install Pywin32.
I did however have the latest version of
python installed.

I just can get this program to run

[ANDEWEGET]

Make sure to have a python version older than 3 (2.7 or 2.6) and match the PyWin version with that (Python 2.6 needs a 2.6 PyWin).

PyWin needs to find the (correct) Python installation, so maybe Python was installed incorrectly or you don't have a matching version.

[WorstMB2Player]

I got mine to work by switching to Python 2.7 and using a newer version of Pywin32.

Thanks.

[ANDEWEGET]

Do you have links or the exact version numbers? Then others with the same problem could try those.

[Teancum]

Has anyone had any luck with the Clone Wars models? I try to import some of the player models/animals into Mod Tool, but if I import with the animations enabled they're distorted.

[ANDEWEGET]

Did you try importing the model first (animations disabled) and then importing again to apply the animations (geometry disabled). I think that worked for me, but that was a few years ago so I'm not 100% on the details.

[Teancum]

Good idea. I'll try that tonight.

Can I make a suggestion? I'm retexturing/updating the stock Carbon Freezing Chamber model which will involve some retexturing. At the moment, to add a new material I would have to create a new material in the Material Property Editor and then manually assign the parameters I need to it, but could there be a 'Clone Material' button? That way the only thing we would have to do is to assign the new texture to it without having to alter all the parameters.

I believe you can already do this in XSI's Material Manager window.
