Adding XSI objects to a map....

Post by PieDude797 »

I have created dozens of objects in XSI to add to my map, but, it won't let me add it if it's not an odf or msh file. So, how would i add this model to my map?

Hmm, well, i didn't export it as a msh, no i don't have an odf file for it, yes i am placing it in the odf file in ZE yes i am munging, and i eat pie too. I'll try the first two that i didn't do.

Edit: Okay, i tryed to export it, then i realized, i have no idea how to do that. I've never had to export any files before. How do you export files?

what version of xsi do you have? if it's mod tools then you can't export. if you have a better one than mod tools, use the exporter provided with the mod tools.

I have version 4.2 of Mod Tools and version 5.11 of foundation, i was just recently trying to download XSI essentials, but then, it asked me for a customer ID. It says that the ID is integrated in the liscense files, but i can't find them. Is there any other way i can download this?

You'll have to BUY Essentails before you can get any license to run the program. You gotta pay man, that's the only way.

But, he has foundation, so shouldn't he be able to export the files himself?

no - he never paid for it. you can freely download the program, but not run it. He thought he could download the Foundations and run it without paying.

But, you can... I just downloaded it, and i have a 30 day trial, but i can still run it w/o paying for it. So, if you have foundation, then do you really need essentials?

I think you can run Foundation, but you cannot export your models with it. Like you can make em and everything and its fully funtional, but you need someone else who has it to export em. At least thats my understanding.

PandemicBF2.xsiaddon works in Foundation trial

Post by AceMastermind »

The "PandemicBF2.xsiaddon" does work with the 30 day trial version of Foundation, you just need to install it.

Oh and in order to install it me and PD would need to buy it right? Oh well. I guess we'll have to have someone else export them for us.

Okay,

When you download foundations of the website, its the 30 day trial, after that you can't reinstall it.

You can use the exportet with the trial aswell.
