rwbishUP Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 I installed the .edm plugin in 3ds max, but when I try to access a tool from the plugin, I get a "script file not found" error. Like settingsGUI.ms not found, exportToPSMeshGUI.ms not found, or overwingVaporMakerGUI.ms not found. Is there something I need that I didn't download in order to use the plugin with 3ds?

durp Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Does anyone else have the issue with the EDM plugin that one can no longer use the file > export > export functionality in 3ds max? 3dsmax (2023 & 2024, I can't go really older) crashes when doing that, regardless if the scene is empty and manually moving the files out of the plugin dir when not doing DCS stuff is slightly cumbersome... Just buy going to file > export > export, it instantly crashes 3dsmax, the 'edm export' from the toolbar however seems to work (I can't tell, other than a few test EDMs I haven't done with it yet) this is not really on how to use those EDM tools (started learning DCS related stuff) but more of an "how to keep the host application functional with the ED plugins installed" issue. it simply breaks 3dsmax export feature, regardless of using it for edm files or as in most cases here for other things. (did install various versions, just not sure how far to go back in time with those, particularly as 2024 support was added in April) I would be happy for any hints on which plugin-build does not crash max when going to export, for now I have to manually remove the plugin files in max Could go up to 5 versions back, which should be 2020, but this would be a really specific DCS case and when autodesk releases their 2025 series, the oldest to get would be 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey45 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 My 2022 crashes While doing that route... Which means exporting to FBX to do textures is a no go... did a complete reinstall as well.. Evan whit out the plugins. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

GOA_Escorpion (R) Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Hi all, I can't see the textures option in ModelViewer2, any ideas?

joey45 Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Went to download the latest version and an option to download a\the Blender plugin .... Is this ED's own or the unofficial one??

joey45 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Index of /mods/ (eagle.ru) @empty It'll be great if it can be made official as it'll help those that use Blender even more.

If you download it from the link you posted and load it into Blender it says that it is an official plugin from ED in version 1.0.0. I have not gotten it to work though. But this was a suprise to me regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey45 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 @empty Is the a reason why ED took out the FLIR view in the modelviewer?

rato65 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I temporarily switched back to 3dsmax to bea able to repair an older model, but I am not able to export any edm correctly, whatsoever. Even a simple box mapped with a bitmap does only give a 309 byte edm file and an empty box-frame in model viewer mt. I use max 2022 and edm-plugins-216821, and also tried edm-plugins-229281. Any trick I am missing? Which combination works with max 2022? edit: I get a model exported with the standard legacy materials, but no mapping of textures or lights. In Modelviewer, no "Textures" Window pops up (it does with older or Blender-exported models). Thanks for any suggestions... edit: solved. (I used OSL bitmap lookup accidentally, needed to use simple bitmap load). V. Edited January 13 by rato65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vismonger Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I am having troubles getting anything to show up in the modelviewer. It gives all these errors but they also appear when loading the f5E for example but the model still shows up. Mine don't show up. this is just a simple setup to sanity check myself. The dummy has Type="boundingbox"; and i've tried to but the box on renderable and no type but it just won't work. Pretty sad because I made a fully modeled and animated cockpit. Please help I can't find anything about this and I can't understand most of the instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you also press "make cool"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
