Very annoying crash during MSH Export...

[i2Bros]

When I start my msh export this message appears and the process suddenly stops working


What can I do?

Are you trying to rig and animate a soldier character of some sort?If so i have a tutorial for this purpose made by Sereja.I can upload it tomorrow for you and give you link.Everyting there is explained and there are also pictures+example scene file to watch.   Do you want them?

And one side question.Do you atleast know how to properly export a simple prop model into msh?

I'm following a tutorial step by step. Aldo this crash happens with everything even with pre-exported weapons mshs 

Btw I'd like to check this tutorial.

It seems like you have incorrect destination coordinates in your ZETools navigation panel. You just send your trooper to nowhere. The destination coordinates should looks like this:

Code Select Expand

C:\Softimage\Softimage_Mod_Tool_7.5\Addons\ModTool_Database\Models\1.msh

I'll try as soon as possible, thank you!

Well, those abracadabra tells me nothing, because such text lines is for programmers only. So what actually happens: did you get "red line" error, or when you check the Models folder, you didn't found there your 1.msh model? Did you try to export something simple for testing, like a cube or sphere?

[i2Bros]

red line error and yes I tried, I have even tried to export pre-exported mshs.

It's weird...
Make sure you install all of the support staff: python, pywin32,  Visual C++

[Ginev]

Listen to what Sereja is saying.He know best.He helped me too.So do you have python, pywin32,  Visual C++ installed too?

[Led]

Yes, you must very carefully follow the directions.  Watch my youtube video.  You can not skip any steps.

[i2Bros]

Listen to what Sereja is saying.He know best.He helped me too.So do you have python, pywin32,  Visual C++ installed too?

I installed each of them 

EDIT: The last time I downloaded the last version/ update as .zip and I unzipped it in the Addons folder as the instructions say. Then I tried with the tar.gz, but nothing changed. It keeps saying I installed the 1.3.0022 when I'm sure I installed the latest version on the top of the page as .zip

EDIT2:
FINALLY I SOLVED IT!
I've just installed the Tools from scratch and it worked! Thanks to all of you! You earned a place in  my mod final credits!



But there are new obstacles: [spoiler][/spoiler]
- I have to set materials properly.
- I have to get rid of the clone.
I'm confident I'll make it even trough this

Looks like you dont have your tga textures in your folder with this model also i am seeing that your lowrez version model of the trooper is inside the high rez main model.In XSI before export you can click on the lowrez model and then press H to hide it.So when you export he wont be visible.

Sadly the texture won't appear in XSI too so i still cant figure out how do I apply materials in ze tools
