I need someone with 3dsmax or Wings3d!

I need someone with 3dsmax, or whatever programs are compatible with .3ds, .obj, .md2, or .md5 who can convert those files to .mdx. My export script to .mdx is brokatized and until its fixed i need some1 to email my models to and they can post em or email the .mdx version back to me. This would be very highly appreciated and i have some really kick-ass models in my "large model expanse" folder that i never thought of posting here because they were the wrong format, until i found that there were 'python' scripts that can make files readable by applications and editors such as these.

hope im not posting in the wrong forum,

Hmm, well if you do happen to find someone, could you tell 'em to send me an e-mail at: [email protected] or [email protected]

I have a picture that needs to be changed into mdx ^^. I can give either an image file or .blp (your choice).

i could do it for you but im not that good with 3dsmax and hardly know how to model.if i were you id PM a model section mod or highly respected modeler and ask them(cookie,mechon...)

Dragon_Lord: LOL man
3 demensional = MODEL
2 demensional = SKIN or IMAGE
you cant convert an 2d object to a 3d object unless what you are trying to say is you want something wraped on a model,then PM me and il teach you how.

.... no as it's supposed to be a loading screen and needs to be .mdx

Dragon: You can't convert images into mdx files. That simple

What you CAN do is convert it into a blp file and then make it wrap onto a mdx file

halo you know how to change .3ds to .mdx right? well if you do just like give me your email...@Dragon_Lord a loading screen is still 3d even if it is only an oddly-shaped plane.

...mac...

Erm... you said that an image can't be converted into .mdx? Not true. In a map I have (The Voyage - Part 2) the loading screen is .mdx
#10
LoadingScreen.mdx is not an image. it is an image wrapped around a model.

hey DDNGW, just wondering, what program do you use to make models? I also am on a mac.

btw, I have wings. don't know if it can convert to .mdx though. haven't really experimented with it. is there a plug-in that makes it possible to export to .mdx?

I use a program called Blender. blender3d.org if u wanna check it out. I don't know if wings can go to .mdx or not, but i've seen models by people who use it on this site.

I just looked at Blender. Looks pretty sweet.

I think I saw, or heard about, an obj to mdx converter somewhere. I could be just making things up though. If there isn't one, there should be.
