How to use models from Empire at War

Post by PizzatheHutt »

For a mod I will perhaps make, I will have to use models from Empire at War .
Is there a free 3d object converter which works with textures ( The one I tried didn't worked with the textures) ?
Is it possible to change the scale of the ingame model with the odf ?

EDIT: Oooops :oops: I made an error: this topic should be in "SWBF2 Modding":
could somebody move it ?

you cant change an objects scale through odf, you can scale it through a msh.option file but you cant go below 0.5 or above 2.0. if you want to make vehicles, you need to add hardpoints for effects and weapons in xsi.

Thanks !!! :D
Another question: Is it legal to use the models from EAW that weren't made by modders ?

Technically? No, not to my knowledge.

However the game might be old enough that the staff might not care. Some old games like Jedi Knight Academy, are too outdated, and Lucasarts doesn't care anymore. The case may be the same for EAW.
