Map: Doublerock - 3dsmax problem

EwoudCP · Post by **EwoudCP** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 10:27 am

I made the model of a map and tool.exe made a scenario tag.
The problem is that when I try to do radiosity in sapien or tool, I get an error. I imported the .debug file that was created and I saw that the complete floor of the level doesn't work.
If someone who knows how to make maps is ready to help, I will send the link to the .max file.

Remember that I will soon post pictures of the 3D model so no one can steal the 3d file, fix it and make a map for himself.

<EDIT>
Here is a picture of the map in 3dsmax.

The idea is from a vacation in France.

The one who fixes it will get credit, of course.

Looks like you might have loads of open edges, overlaping polygons in that, and it exported in tool? I have no idea, but try selecting the mountain things, and where they join doing a vertex weld, it will probably fix all of that if you get the right threshold. Then you could run a vertex weld on all of it with a much lower threshold..

All open edges are fixed.
The doublerock("mountain things") doesn't show problems, but it's the floor that is the problem. I know that, because I imported the debug file and I even tried separating the water and the doublerock, but the floor still gives an error in radiosity.

Do you want to have a look at it in 3dsmax? I will PM you the link.

did the error say something about UVW's?

because if it did then you need 512 faces not a gagillion billion

As I said: the problem is solved.
And the map is done. It's available here:
