CMX to 3DS convertor by Nitemare // post your renders
hello! Nitemare made a program that converts CMX files to 3DS so you can open lfs cars 3d models in programs which can open 3ds format. bad thing is that the car you get is without materials infos so its whole white and if you want to have different parts of car in different colours/properties you have to do it manually....


so if anyone is interested in doing some renders, go on and post them here

http://lfs.vn.cz/downloads/other/cmx-2-3ds.zip[/url]


EDIT: here you can find converted s2 models: http://www.liveforspeed.cz/downloads/s2cmx.zip

I hope someone can soon figure out how to assign the regular skins and then we can all start posting renders of new skins instead of having to use ingame screenshots.

The CMX files only work in the lfs viewer. If you delete them from the folder, lfs will still work...

So editing the CMX files will only take effect in LFS Viewer.

Yes, it's purely an export format for viewers and so on, it doesn't really take us a step closer to import for LFS Our internal meshes that we use for game objects are a completely different format. For example, our wheels don't have a mesh at all, they are kind of live generated from a spoke and a cross-section, but i've done a special output here just for the CMX system.

Scawen: is it possible to have the same skinning information on the 3ds as on the cmx by just exporting them or would we have to assign all that information ourselves?

Well i don't know about what the 3ds format can or can't do. But all i can say is that all the texture information is in the CMX file - what you see in the CMX viewer all came from the CMX file. And that file format is available on our site.

So... it's possible for someone to convert to other file formats and keep that information.

Great, now that someone just needs to find out how.

If it is of any help, maybe looking at the way the information is mapped in the TPTCC 3ds-files will make this process easier.

Ok I know that this is plain ugly, but it was just super quick mapping test.
Notice the tuning rear spoiler.
