ActorX Importer for 3ds Max

[Gildor]

I've decided to rename "Recurse" option to "Look in subfolders". I hope it won't confuse users anymore There's a new ActorX Importer, I didn't change a version number - this change doesn't deserve anything but mentioning it here.

Did you import a mesh into 3ds Max exported with old UModel or with new UModel?

[Gildor]

Version 1.36

• using case-insensitive comparison when finding bones in scene for animation

This should fix at least part of "unable to find root bone" issues.

[Gildor]

Version 1.38

• implemented loading of vertex colors

Looks like it doesn't work with 3ds max 2020:

Code:

I just checked the ActorX Importer for 3ds Max 2020 and everything works fine for me.

Hi Gildor

I am getting heavy seams when trying to mod ME3, using latest tools and latest actor x importer. 3dsmax 2012 64bit and 3dsmax 2011 32bit both tried out with appropriate exporter plugin. Exported using latest legendary explorer using umodel inside the tool, export to psk, imported into 3dsmax, exported after just moving some vertices, imported into udk editor to save to upk, imported using the tools.
Any ideas? It's like the old issue that was solved previously. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, on an old install the process I used worked well.  




Okay nevermind, figured it out. It was because the mesh, or uv was mirrored. Something about it doesn't like import/export and was breaking.
