[This tutorial is for people who have some knowledge of 3d Max 3.1, photo editing programs
such as Photoshop & Paint Shop Pro and the MCM 2 Track Editor "Armadillo".]
Page 4 [of 4]
How to export your 3d model from 3DsMAX using Unibastard.
This is actually one of the easier processes involved with making objects for armadillo,
once you have your model ready, your texture saved and mapped to it.
[NOTE: Customize your 3D Max "Utilities" panel the same way we did on the last page (page 3) in "Step 7." and put "Unibastard" on the "Utilities" panel.]
1. What you have to do now is "Reset X-Form" FIRST.
Do that by:
1.Select the "Utilities" tab.
2.Click the "Reset X-Form" button.
3.Click on the object.
4.Click on "Reset Selected" as shown below.
2.
Then you must "Collapse the Stack".
Do this by:
1.Select the "Utilities" tab.
2.Click on "Collapse".
3.Check "Modifier Stack Result".
4.Click on your object.
5.Click "Collapse Selected".
3. Now for the final step to export your object as a "Soultree" file (.slt) for use in Armadillo.
Now you are ready, listen closely, lol.
1.Select the "Utilities" tab.
2.Click on the "Unibastard" button.
2.Then click on the Export SLT button.
4.Click on your object.
4. 4.The "Save" window will pop up. Find your "TrackEditor/UserModels" folder and save it as "Haybale.slt".
Your object is now ready to be placed on your track in Armadillo.
[NOTE: In order for custom objects to be placed in Armadillo, you MUST shorten the path to the track editor to: (yourdriveletter):\MCM2\TrackEditor\UserModels . The default path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Motocross Madness 2\TrackEditor\UserModels is much too long and has too mant spaces in it - Armadillo will crash if you try to place a custom object with this "Default" path.
To change the path, you must re-install MCM2 and the Track Editor.]
