I talked to Borde a little while back, basically don't expect any updates from him for at least 6 months, more likely 10.

Ok I went through this and have to admit it is easy to skip posts to find out. I've gone through several versions of the editor and every time I bring up the entire model I get a very simple. Overflow error 6 whenever I specificly click the model. Then trying to remove part from bone I get error 9. Does any one have a simple solution because I may have skipped over it, but either way I couldnt find it trying to do searches. BTW I use windows XP

I thought I should add that I tried all the fixes microsoft states. Only thing that changed is now I can run it in 250 what ever colors. However it makes things EXTREMELY difficult to see

(No more double post)

you extract the files with lgp tools or highwind? :-(

remember when extract,make a folder on desktop and extract the files there,after you can see with kimera.

There is no reason to quote this image.  And the fact that someone quoted it before you makes it worse.  I'm not going to issue a warning to either of you, but let this be a notice to everyone to take it easy quoting images.  ESPECIALLY if it doesn't have to be and has been quoted recently.

Hi everyone !

This is my first post here, so I want to thanks the Qhimm Forum administrator to accept me as a new member ! And thanks to Borde for his application ! :)

EDIT : "Was having problems with parts modifications and skeleton."

And then I've found an answer to my question : need to create polygons on no-textured faces. Sorry for that ! Anyway thanks !... Still have a big animation problem :( How could you make them matches all frames ?! Can't do it :( Well maybe I'll success to make 10 animations matches .... but one moment or another parts doesn't matches the animation :(

i think have only 2 ways to texture using kimera.when you have texture (will put a color up texture giving effect in texture with color you used) and just color a p part.
about add textures is diferent way.what you need to know?(recolor texture add texture etc.)

Thanks. :)

I want to add textures. I made some custom models for Cait Sith http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11168.msg155635#msg155635 I have imported very well the model (size, place, etc), but I can't find how add textures. I made basic textures, and maybe I'll replace it in the future for better textures. [If you need it, models uses 3DS and BMP].

okay.

in kimera you can see a part saying general lightning,up there you can see show texture options.
click in p file or weapon and click add texture,after you search and click in .tex file or .bmp and the texture will be added.I think the important is in Pcreator,to see what number will be texture (i don't right about this)why sometimes the texture need be in first and the first texture is the principal texture (character texture).

I see... If you want add a texture, you must open "model" (ryaa--> Cait Sith) and not a piece (weapons, for example). I'll research about kimera, I'm going to write a guide for new guys. [Thanks you].

Now, I made another mistake. What's wrong?

see,this can be 2 problems.Or is UV Map (when you create this weapon model you certified the weapon texture is right? )

or the problem can be the back color,(i see is yellow probably need be black or white to fix,you can see this in custom models.You can see the back color is black and don't have any problems when you texture some part in kimera )

I still haven't found... (add music  8))

I checked the model and it also has bad poly count. My software, 3dwings, doesn't export very well to 3ds (not use polys like triangles). I fixed it with blender, but continue the problem... Could it be kimera doesn't support my unwrap? In blender, It works on the box.

NOTES: back=white; UV=unfolder, not projections or maps

you know Pcreator have a problem with UV?you need flip UV in all models you import to your ff7 you need flip UV (tick Y) maybe this is your problem if you still don't know that.

Well, well... sure it's been a while. I finally found some time to spend on Kimera and ironed a couple of bugs. Turns out the reason why 3ds files were untextured in-game was because I didn't pay enough attention to information kindly provided by Aali. Well, serves me right. The problem was with a flag on the render states (you can now edit them on the groups properties) that was telling the game to not draw any textures.

By the way, I encourage you to play with the render states and the blending modes. You can get pretty interesting results with some imagination.

Some will say this is too few too late. And probably they will be right. But I've been busy with real life and Kimera became quiet a chore. Besides, it looks like every VB6 program it's doomed when Windows 8 gets released, becasue MS has decided to cese any kind of support for it (I guess they have decided it's time to push VB.Net of once and for all). Don't expect any more updates (maybe some bugfix, but nothing major). This project is pretty much dead.

On the other hand, I'm working on something else that may interest you all.

See you around.
