AJLynn Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Use File menu - Open and choose the 3DS file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitarboy Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 Oh, thanks. i was looking for the more difficult option straight up. i tried it this way tho and still only the ground floor and part of the first floor have come in, im still missing the top 3 levels. any one have any ideas as to why this is happening? im also only running the demo version which might be causing this problem, i think it might have be ready to expire.

STRAT Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 where are you importing your 3ds from? what is in your 3ds file - 3ds content is only 3d stuff, any 2d drawing is ignored. you might also find that exploding your model before you make a 3ds file out of it to export is a better option too in some instances. Also, huge meshes need to be broken down into a few different objects before you 3ds them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
