Tanks Exporting problem

by Albert Steckenborn · in Artist Corner · 06/22/2006 (12:03 pm) · 5 replies

Hello,

i have the Brave Tree Tank pack and i want to export a own created tank but always the 3DS Max crashed during exporting. It's related to the tank traks. If i will delete the traks then everything is working fine. I've done the trans liks discribed in the manual and shown in the abrams.max.
I've created the tracks model and added a skin modifier to it. then added the meshes "inner_L_A" (all others) as bone to the skin and assign the vertices to the envelopes.

Here are the last lines of the dump file:
Vertex 341
Bone 7, weight = 1.000, name = "outer_LR"
Vertex 342
Bone 6, weight = 1.000, name = "outer_LF"
Vertex 343
Bone 7, weight = 1.000, name = "outer_LR"
Vertex 344
Bone 7, weight = 1.


Does anybody have any ideas ?

I'm running into a very similiar issue myself, but it's not high on my priority list so I haven't asked about it. I did find some info searching the forums but for the life of me I cannot find the links right now. I hope you get an answer to this question and share it with us.

Still crashing.

I'm really sad of this. The Tank pack is not really good documentated. The most important thing are not documented..
