Sure. By the way, if you want you can send me the .xsi file. I'll make the UV for you and the skin. If you got the UV map already PM it to me

If you send me the XSI it would be actually easieer for me. But you chose.

Dont I need XSI Foundation to export .msh?
Id rather have you do it too,lol but im not sure what i need

Yes, Foundation is necessary. You will have to install PandemicBF2.xsiaddon, confeniently located in BF2_Modtools/XSIAddon. (I think that Foundation is necessary...There might be another tool, but I have no knowledge of one...)
You also should download the trial before buying it...$500 is a real chunk of cash for the full version.

Could i get the link to the Trial? theres like 50 versions

SOFTIMAGE|XSI v.5.11 Foundation for 32-bit Windows 30 days trial

All you need to do is export the file as a .xsi (File > export > DOTxsi (i think) ) Then send it to me through save file or MSN or one of those

Posted: **Sat Sep 09, 2006 1:02 pm**

Ok, I sent you a PM with a link for the .xsi.

Small update: I'm about half way done with UV mapping. I also remodeled parts of the gun (NOT changed the shape, just reduced polygons and did some tweaks) The texture is about 60% done, the base texture is almost done, then i gotta make scratches and such. I'll PM you a picture in a bit.
