Title: Help on editing models?
Post by: Pippin on January 31, 2011, 11:55:19 PM
Hey guys, after seeing all the custom-colored models, and such. . I need some help on the matter.

I am trying to use Photoshop CS5 Extended to open the .obj files, because they should be able too work, but I get a "You need more RAM/Memory" Even though I have 4GB DDR3 OC'ed RAM and The RAM usage at that time is being recorded at %50. . .

Anyway, what program(s) are you guys using? Also, what are you guys using to edit .rcz files?

Get GIMP and XNVIEW.  Makes it a lot easier.

I lol'd.
That's why I didn't answer your PMs.

Just to be a good little admin, I'll tell you here.
.obj files are object files, you see.
Photoshop opens image files.
Get the drift?
You'll be needing a different program to open object files that opens object files, not image files.

Not sure if you guys can see the bolded text, but its Photoshop Extended, I edit 3D models in it all the time.

So yes, it does edit 3D files. So before you call me a complete nub, I know what I am talking about. I am wondering what you guys are using to edit the 3D files though.

There are a ton of different model formats, used by model editing programs.

The model format the creators of BOUT used is unknown. It may have even been a custom format. So, they can't be edited until we find a program that can read the format, or we make a program to do that ourselves.

And the latter is very, very unlikely. Model editing programs aren't easy to make.
