Newest EDM Model Tools

They work with Firefox at the moment.

 

Chrome and Edge is having problems, unless you change something in the settings.

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

Hi guys. I played dcs for some time and now i want to get into making mods. Sory but i have to ask two noob questions. 

 

1.Can i import models from dcs into 3ds max (i use 2020 version)? 

 

2.Will model work if it is made with student version of 3ds max?

Hi Guys,

not quiet sure if anyone ran into this. But all my animations now show REFERENCE TARGET instead of ARG BASED POSITION/ROTATION.
Even older files show the same...

Ok, I've been told that this seems to be a bug in the 2022 plugin. One should ignore it.

Ok - got an error on export:
ZERO NUMBER OF KEYS

So if there's an Object which don't have animation keys -> how to find that since the exporter doesn't seem to be precise on which Object the error occures.
Do I need to check every Object ?

For me the links don't work anymore... Anyone else??


Early in this year, Chrome, Edge and firefox removed support for ftp browsing.

The ftp links of ModelViewer standalone and edm plugin are reachable with the "good old" Internet explorer or some ftp browser (like filezilla or winscp).

With the new MAX2022 version and the newest EDPlugin i am not able to export any of my modells. All files are empty. I made the material "cool" and used "file-export-ed:: model exporter".

 

Any ideas?

Same boat as you.

Student version is identical to the commercail version...

So yes tools and operation are the same but it is not the same after that. Any files made on the student version are encoded with a licence and property that it was created with a student version and anyone while using a Student copy exports an FBX file it too will inherit the property. If you try to sell or sent the file to someone it will alert and remind you every time that file is opened or used. If you do anything and charge for it even if it isn't DCS, Autodesk has ways of finding that out.

See my previous post about a simple work around.

Never mind looks like they completely removed FTP, not just disabled it.

I succesfully installed the ModelViewer2 to give a modding DCS a shot. I am using Win10 Home 64 and DCS 2.7.3. I tried installing the program both with AV on and off. I allowed the installation process to be excluded from the UAC as it was required.
The results are:
- the default ModelViewer2 in DCSWorld\bin folder won't run (no errors show up)
- the standalone ModelViewer2 (both version 190322 and 190566) shows this error upon my attempts to open it:

Code execution cannot continue because edDumpMonitor.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix the problem.

There is no edDumpMonitor.dll anywhere in the EagleDynamics folder or in User\Saved Games\DCS folder.
How to proceed from here to have the Model Viewer 2 working?

just in case you missed the multiple posts re:


do not download the latest versions, as they are internal builds and will not work on an system without the updated software to go with it.

go back at least 30 days.

Hi, for help with the Blender plugin you might get more and better answers when you post that in a dedicated forum like https://forums.eagle.ru/topic/229164-edm-exporter-for-blender-28 ?
As a newbie that I still am I had the same problem (btw running on 2.93.5). It turned out that RenderType was 'none' instead of 'RenderNode'.

Hi everyone,

I require a standalone version of the modelviewer, since the one in the DCS folder doesn't work at all. I need to to review repaints, so I don't have to constantly start and close DCS.

Standard one in the bin folder doesn't work.

I tried the ftp links from the first page, but they don't work at all either. Anyone know where I can find one?
