Yeah, thats fine lol.
It is a shame about the train, it looks really cool.
I'll have to dig around the intanets, to see if I can find a regular XSI train model.

Not sure if those're free, but it if you choose a train, on the "Model Preview" page, at the bottom there's a scroll-down menu. In it is "SoftImage/XSI Scene (.xsi)". I dunno if that's the right file type, but it sounds right

Right type, but very detailed, and then there's this....:
Using a free registration plan you can download models only if uploading and your uploaded models was accepted to the site catalog after our review (2-6 weeks after upload).

I can't seem to find the skin for this model so I that might be a problem
When you're scaling it, use this as a reference

AWESOME. great train model guys!!! it does look like it needs to be scaled

Yea, some how the skin is hardcoded into it, which is fine, just saying.
I'll ask Qdin to export it for me tomarrow.
seriously this is going to be SO HUGE before I scale it,
That I will take a picture to show you just how MONUMENTALY HUGE it is.

Just wondering but are all of those models the same type? cuz I see alot of useful models in there.

What, in Dohnutt's link? Yeah, but you gotta pay for those... Unless you upload a very good model that the approve, but judging by the quality of those models, that's gonna be hard.

Yea I alreaddy found a fairly nice site that has free .3ds downloads, most of them cost cahs, but there are quite a few free models. I even found a "Ocarina of Time" object.
Expect it to be in the map.

Nice caleb zelda rules! but could you make some more stuff blow-up-able. thing that explode make things even more interesting... he, he I didn't mean that it isn't already interesting.

well, seems we are still looking for a train model.
I can't export the train because it has to many triangles.
I tryed cleaning it up some, but I could only get it down to about 15,673 triangles.
I found this train... but I don't know if XSI supports .max format.

Are there programs or methods for changing a file's type? If so could we use one of those for it?
* says in soft voice*: peace and love. *then screams* TRAINS RULE.
can we ride in the train? ***ninjas vs. PIRATES is still a great idea caleb.***
I'm impressed caleb at all of this work.

Quick Update: I've replaced durge's "bomb" with MasterSaitek009's cool punch weapon.
I'll have a pic of that up in a few minates.
Also I will test Qdin's patiance by asking him to export the bed again for me, because I made a stupid mistake.
