Test Drive Unlimited World Editor V0.04

[Minime891]

[quote name='Speeder']@Minime891 sorry it might take some time since I'm rewriting the tool from scratch (with missing file format support, like .uva and .pmi). :D[/QUOTE] No worries I'm just curious with the state of it.

[Rigel]

Take a look at this thread, then to this video:

...and imagine the hype level of mine right now :D

[sorry for offtopic, just wanted to know how things are going]

P.S. BTW new cities like NFS ones in TDU would be awesome! ;)

[Darkboy]

@Speeder Any updates?

[Boogie]

Hi, really looking forward to the 0.5 version. :D

But going back to the 0.4 version...

I've been trying to apply textures to the Havok.dae (The collision mesh for the roads). Could someone send me a Dae havok file with working textures so that I can see how the codding works. Thanks

[Minime891]

You don't apply textures to the Havok mesh.

[Boogie]

Thanks:)

I would've wasted a lot of time experimenting with dae. If I haven't known that.

[Minime891]

I guess there is no news other wise you would've posted it. :) But thought I'd ask how is it going?

[M777AX777]

Speeder. the program does not work on a 64-bit system, how to fix it?

[Guest danielix752]

[LonelyDarknesss]

[MagicV8]

Djeys link at page 6 still works.

Hi guys! I am trying to import areas with objects to 3ds max 2013 64bit but i have some problems with it. I have Windows 7 Pro (Russian language), GeForce graphics card (Dx10)
I have read the UserGuide. (maybe i can't read)

I have a lot of warnings in 3ds (sector 8-8-1-1)

What should I try? I think the problem is in FBX, but how can I fix it?
I had tried 3ds max 2010, i had the same problem. If it possible, give me an answer in russian (не надеюсь, но всё же)
I will be glad to you who will help me!

Any news?

[pinci]

14:09:35  >> ERROR - no sector found in selected folder

(i saved the folder of commonworld.bnk)

what could be wrong?

[Djey]

commonworld is just 3D meshes and textures to be used by the sector files, you would not edit those contents with TDU World Editor.

(and IIRC, there's a bug in ZModeler2 plugin which prevents editing its meshes anyway)

Have a look at embedded documentation to know which bnks to extract and process.

thanks a lot, i'll try and then will show the result))

P.S. i know that commonworld is not for editing, but in the world editor is required to indicate in the settings the folder of this file

Hey there,

If you need help in creating map mods, I'll be glad to help out. I got some experience making Surfer's Island and other projects.

Check out my guide to TDU mapping.

It tells how get the Hmap files from the game. Objects can be imported using the same tool, but you will have to cut a few lines using a txt editor.

Trees and buildings might be an issue, because they are codded in. The models are all located in the "Commonworld" folder but you might need Zmod to get them.

In short. Yeah sure, but it would take a very long time to get everything you see in TDU into an other engine.

[Ratibor]

Good afternoon.

I'm making a mod for the game. I need buildings for the mod. They cannot be extracted from the game.

If I understand correctly, they are located together with the landscape in the sections Test Drive Unlimited\Euro\Bnk\Level\Hawai\Area-*\Area-*-*

The landscape is successfully extracted using Test Drive Unlimited World Editor if you select only HeightMAP. After extraction, the DAE landscape file can be loaded into Blender.

Roads are also extracted normally if you select Static Havok Roads instead of HeightMAP.

If I understood correctly, then to export a building, you should choose Objects instead of HeightMAP. But when you try to import a DAE file into Blender later, a void is imported.

Blender version 3.5.1

Do I misunderstand and the buildings are located somewhere else, or do I need to extract them in some other way?
Can someone tell me how to extract buildings from the game?

Hi,

Very few buildings are actually in the sectors. Most buildings are located in a library found in the Commonworld.bnk. Its called Library.3dg and you'll need zmodder to open it.
