Damn. Sorry, set the permissions wrong (ie. forget to set them at all); fixed now.
 
Hey Alhexx.. I tested your proggie, nice work man  :) though i have a question.. Is it possible to import the whole model into 3dmilkshape or must I import piece by piece and then put 'em together manulaly in 3dmilk? If you haven't implanted that option yet (import a whole fieldmodel), it would be ultra cool if ya would look into that before the next release if it's not to hard...  :) keep up the good work dudes!
 
tulkk: I've thougth about this option, too, but I haven't been able to programm it ('till now). First, I've got to figure out, how the pieces are put together. But I think, that I'll find it out some day. At the moment I'm workin' on this motherf :x :xkin' raw-to.p converter (which still doesn't want to work!!! (and I still have no idea why...)) - Alhexx

P.S. YEEEAAHHH! I made it up to Ficedula's Link Page (I have never thought that this will happen so far ( I'm so happy  :) ))
 
positions are located in the .a files We *really* need to start with those...
 
Hey, guys, bad news...
I can't get this raw-to-.p converter running...I just don't understand why it doesn't want to work  :-?
So I've decided to upload the source to see if someone can help me...it's written in Visual Basic 6. So if u can program in VB, take a look at this and tell me, if u know what I've done wrong...

Please Help me...

al......is that it. are there modules or anything that go with it? filterindex doesnt seem to be a valid command.
 
i get the stranges feeling cd1 isnt supposed to be a picture box, but thats what it appears to be
 
ok, al i spend some time looking at it, and the main problem is that you have the variables mixed up. Like this:
Y -> Z
X -> Yand the outputed x variable is screwed up. ill look into it.
 
ok, thats not true for all of them. but 1 variable is always screwed up.
 
Hmm,..CD1 is a 'CommonDialog'.

Maybe you're right...I've also recognized, that the X variable is written badly, but I've got no real idea why...

hey, i just got an idea. maybe the program doesnt write 12 bites for each vertex.
 
ok, just a guess here but shouldn't there only be 1 comma in the Val? (i.e. Val(Mid$(Poly number %z, y-coordinate):PolyY(z%, m%) = Val(Mid$(Poly(z%), leer1_1% + 1, leer1_2% - leer1_1%))
 
PolyY(z%, m%) = Val(Mid$(Poly(z%), leer1_1% + 1 + leer1_2% - leer1_1%))that writes some of the last vertexes correctly on what i was testing it on.
 
Not necessarily, the parameters in there are all to Mid$ which can take either 2 or 3 parameters.Mid$(String, Value) retrieves all of String from position Value onwards

Mid$(String, Val1, Val2) retrieves only part of String from position Val1 onwards (think Val2 is how many chars to read? dunno).

(God, I can't believe I can actually remember any VB ... it's been years since I've used it. Luckily.)
 
Fice's right:
Mid$ can use 2 or 3 parameters...Mid$(String, Starting Position, Chars to Read)

But I don't think that this is the reason...

darkness: 12 Bytes: I thought about this, too, and I think, it's possible. But I still don't understand it.

I've tried to let the app check if the new (manipulated) vertex coords are the same like the original ones...and then I told VB to skip the 'put-sequence', so it shouldn't have written anything, but it did...I wonder why?

P.S. I won't be at home the next 4 days (Saturday - Monday), so I possibly won't have a chance of posting or uploading anything...
 
fice, i think you know more about this than any of us do. why dont you take a look?
 
One word: Exams. I don't have time for much else at the moment.
 
GOOD NEWS!I've got this RAW to .p converter running!  :D
Oh, man, there were quite a lot of bugs!  :wink:

Well, okay, I've uploaded the latest version (0.26) of Ultima, so u can download it now.

Read the Readme File first!
