Newest EDM Model Tools


Recommended Posts

I was able to get a link to my old 2017 download from an autodesk email I had archived, and the link was still valid. Lucked out I guess.

The one bundled in your latest version of DCS should be newest enough for all your needs. Never saw the want or need to use one newer than your install. Same goes for the EDM plugins.

So.... Is there a solution to the 3DS Max/edm plugin situation?? If you actually have an official license, 2018 is the oldest 3DS Max version you can use legally... Which means that in the current situation, only hackers can make mods for DCS.

I pay for a license from Autodesk every month and all I can access is 3DS Max 2018 through 2021.

Thanks.

There's mix discussion on the inside regarding an updated plugin. It is being worked on....but not clear if it's for 2018 or 2020......maybe both.

Well Maybe the solution is making it for blender and hake a old version of max .. :).. I have 2021 and it is impossible to have the 17 so yes all 17 are hacked versions from my knowledge.. Sadly

Fly it like you stole it..

You really want to have 3rd parties get delayed for learning a new/another 3d software? lol

Like I said in the other thread.

 

I rolled back to Version 172213 due to the crashing while animating.

 

The only thing I can't do is edit previous fake lights and animate new ones.

 

Omni and spot lights work fine. With the new lighting set up I suspect it's all changed..

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Seem to be facing an issue with the models in game - When in first person view looking at some models of mine at certain angles , they dissapear (yet their projected shadow remains) and re-appear if i move my head (in VR) or pan camera sligtly to another angle. This is only in first person view , outside cameras are unaffected . It is as if there are blind spots that certain angles make the models invisible .. Has anyone had a similar experience or could help figure out what this is ? Thanks

So just trying to read through this thread to get started,is the current situation that you cant edit for DCS unless you have 3dsMax 2018 or earlier? I inherited a file I was trying to texture map, but it seems its not possible to work with without these plugins which dont seem to install on the 2021 version.

How are you exporting the file. Through the save ass or the tool bar?

 

Is this the built in Modelviewer or the stand alone?

Recent activity of stealing models from DCS have caused the dev team to update their export and game engine code to read a new EDM format.

 

You will need the source model to re-export with 3ds max for 2.5.6
