Converting A Model From Sa?


Mustu

Recommended Posts

So, because I really don't feel like downloading/torrenting/buying SA, could anyone please convert a model for me? It's the 2013 Ford Explorer Limited (available here). If anyone could do that for me, that would be great, and you would also get credit for the model if it is released here. Any help is greatly appreciated. And, if you are criticizing me, saying that I'm lazy, that really IS NOT helping. 

 

<rant>

 

I've really had enough of people criticizing and not getting on with it. This is meant to be fun, this is meant to be a hobby, not a job, so if I get something wrong, or if I get something wrong, say it kindly. Because I don't treat it like it's my job - I don't get paid for it, and it isn't my top priority. I still go to school, guys. So, again, if you don't want to do it, or if you're going to tell me I'm lazy, the door is there, because I don't have the time for it. Also, installing SA, installing the modding software and then learning how to mod it is stressful and time consuming.

Once again, help is greatly appreciated. 

SCNG FTW!!

why dont you attempt to do it yourself. You cant have everyting handed to you or have it "spoon fed" to you. there are plenty of tutorials out there that will tell you how to convert. now you say "stressful" and "time consuming" you are going into this with a wrong attitude. so you will never get better...just saying...

SA really isn't that much money. It's a really awesome game and in my opinion really is worth the 19 or so dollars it would take to buy the game. So there's that.

 

My biggest problem is why you are asking for it to be converted by someone who owns SA. If it's already a vehicle file, why would you need the game. It already has the vehicle model and the texture file required for any conversion process. Also, the model is most likely locked. As it is most likely locked, you would need an unlocked version from the author in order to begin the conversion process. If you have someone unlock it (ripping the model), well that is generally frowned upon by the community as it undermines the author's wishes. That's just my opinion on the matter. 

 

Just trying to add some insight to your perspective.

Hmm, I'll take that into consideration! I need it because I can't extract the textures from the .txd file the vehicle comes with. And FYI, it's unlocked ^.^

Thought I made it clear :/ guess not, should have been in red letters, with bold and italics. I'm really just going to ignore this.

with this comment i am not sure if you can better yourself. A long time ago when I was in your shoes I wanted all the cool models, desperately. And all the people who were helping me told me "once you work hard enough and people appreciate your mods, you will get those opportunities to get the cool models."  I thought they were lying, however I busted my ass for about 2 months straight in zmodeler to get to where I am. If I had your attitude I could not be as good as I am now. And to be honest I made close to 45 models before I released my first. Which gave me the time to properly learn the program and put out a quality car. I am just saying that with this attitude you will never be great.

Alright, alright. Chill. You know what, I'm not going to be the idiot who rebels, I'm done with that. I've learned from the Charger. I'll hit up some tutorials. As for getting the textures, I have no idea :/ if anyone has SA and can import the .txd file and export the textures, that would also be good, or I can do it myself. Either way. Also, did you scratch model that utility truck? It's an F-150, right? Oh, and BTW, I love the X2100. I know you were getting a lot of hate on it :/

All you would really need is the program that will work with SA, im not sure if openiv or spark works with SA, but im sure there is something about the software somewhere on here, and just use that program to extract the textures

Sigh. I see you've adopted Sgt.Kanyo's attitude, well done.

 

Zmodeler is capable of importing .dff models, just use TXD Workshop to extract the textures from the .txd file. 

 

Alright, alright. Everyone calm down. I'll check if this works and then I'll lock the thread. Everyone seems to be very pissed off for some reason.

They're getting pissed off because you saying things like, "I'll lock the thread. Everyone seems to be very pissed off for some reason". You don't have the right to just accept only the answers you find pleasing and censor the ones you don't. Deal with everyone's opinions and attitudes equally whether you think they are helping you with your problem or not.

lol! wow grow a pair dude instead of getting pissy about people's advice why don't you try listening to them? because those are some pretty damn good modelers/modders giving you advice.. and all you need to do to convert a GTASA Model is get a Zmodeler build that can import .dff's properly 2.2.4 will do it but for some reason most of the models get altered during importing.. also your gonna need to find one that's unlocked which I looked and that link is unlocked.

Pay attention!! I just decided to quit it with my behavior and listen to GTAxB0SS, because out of all the modelers who have given me advice on the thread, he is my favorite. I've got the textures done and I'm currently working on the model now. Relax, and can we get this thread locked and/or deleted?

There hasn't been any community guideline violations..

 

Do the moderators even do locking of threads as a request?

 

Yep. As long as the OP is asking, I'm sure they can do it. Also, the original question has been answered.

MODERATOR NOTICE

We do NOT moderate on request and as such, asking for a thread to be locked will do nothing unless there is a good reason for it. Asking for a thread to be closed just because you want it closed is not going to cut it. Now, enough with the arguments already. Any post made after this that is NOT about offering to convert a model from SA to IV, or one that attempts to help Mustu do that himself, will be hidden on sight. I would also like to direct EVERYONE'S attention to this section of the Community Guidelines:

 

Abuse

We all want to have a good time here across the entire G17 Media Network. Any member found to be intentionally preventing other members from enjoying themselves, be that by abusing, teasing, demeaning, 'flaming' or 'trolling' them, will be subject to serious consequences.
