Re: .obj -> .sur converter

Subject: Re: .obj -> .sur converter

The best way to use Schmackis sur conveter is in combination with P1p3rs CMP exporter, because both use the same center point calculation. If you use the old CMP exporter, the standard center will be 0. Schmackis sur converter won't move any part, so just leave it where it is.

For the sur, leave EVERY convex group single. Just give all sur groups that belong to the same CMP group the same name.
You have to name the sur group exactly like its cmp group, so everytime add the _lod1 to the end (like you can read them out of your FIX file).
If you use multiple sur groups for a non root group, it may happen that the group gets another center point for its "secundary" group (= the group of the destroyed, cutted off part). In this case set the manual center point of the FIRST sur mesh entry of this group with the negated value of the FIX value of the CMP group. The manual center override will always be added to the automatic center, no override.


It may be that I didnt answer your question on a way you wanted. I really have some problems understanding your questions.
