ebmar Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Greetings, fellow Jedi! Wish you all the best of time. I am here to ask; Is 'Rescale World Units' not available on gmax v1.2 [yes, the ancient ones]? Because the 'More...' button under the 'Utilities' tab is greyed out and inaccessible. If indeed it's not available, Is there any workaround? I am about to attempt on re-scaling a model/s using this post as a reference. Many thanks for considering this.

DarthParametric Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 Your only option with GMax is doing it via scripting. I had a quick look around but couldn't see anything. I know that the Dragon Age Origins I/O script had some sort of function that could replicate the World Units thing, although I am unsure if it worked in the GMax version. It's probably the sort of thing that would be nice for @bead-v to add to KMax, if he ever returns from the Unknown Regions. 1 Quote

Quote Your only option with GMax is doing it via scripting. More likely, as I was experimenting with the 'Scale Wizard' feature of K-max which I was assuming that it work in similar way with RWU and well; it look promising at first, the program does processing the entered scale but resulting in this error message: I was excited with the possibility before that message came out, lol.

DarthParametric Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 That could be something leftover from NWMax. Quote
bead-v Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 The scale wizard was meant for exactly this purpose apparently. I don't have the time to get into this properly, but I did make a quickfix which should make it usable. Hopefully that helps you out, @ebmar. You put these into "gmax\scripts\KOTORmax\kotormax_scripts", overwrite the old ones and reload gmax. The script will probably encounter problems if there are more objects with the same name in the selection. kotormax_scale_fix_20190121.zip 1 Quote
Malkior Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 IIRC, MDLEdit has a feature that allows you to scale model size. I used it to change the size of the fire emitter a little while ago. Quote

Hopefully that helps you out... Awesome! Thank you so much bead-v for lending your time and expertise on making the fix. Very- very much appreciated. I will look into testing the new script.

Edit: 55 minutes ago, Malkior said: IIRC, MDLEdit has a feature that allows you to scale model size. I used it to change the size of the fire emitter a little while ago. I didn't know that. Later I experimented with scaling the model using its ASCII by enlarging the value of 'scale' and 'setanimationscale' to a respective value, with few editing to appearance.2da. Well, the model does loaded [with no change applied apparently] and the creature moving normally, but there was some geometry issues which I decided to not using the binary afterwards. Update: The script and the compiled binary works, @bead-v! Again, can't say enough thanks to you; but this should work... Edited January 21, 2019 by ebmar 1 Quote
