Don't really know the answer to your question, sorry.

Nice! Empire at War kinda Failed for me in longterm enjoyment. It'd be great to have your designs in this awesome game to give it a StarWars feel

Can you go into some detail as to what program you used and what plug ins?

I've been haveing a massive amount of trouble trying to get models exported into .X

First with Gmax and then with 3DS. I'm also having a lot of trouble getting models moved from Gmax to 3DS. Any help mentioned would be appreciated, thanks!


Have you downloaded the sample ships? They have the textures included. Should be one of the threads on this page, and it might give you a way to go.

P.S. I LOVE THE WARLORDS MOD

used 3ds max and the panda Xporter, I think there is a utility called 3dsconv that makes 3ds files into x files, there is also old copies of 3d exploration(free, deep ex has a trail) that will do this, but I'm not 100% sure about the settings, might be easier to go to .obj first from gmax, I think there is a max script for that.

I tried the sample ships, and it exports fine, I think most of my issue is with naming problems and correct material IDs (some of them work some don't)

Well, thanks EvilJedi the Info for the Converter COULD be from my thread Link
Wrote it one Day before your post here!
No, it's o.k.
And yes you can convert 3ds files into .x files with it and very easy!
