Welcome to the forums

The .dds plugin will always hang at least briefly when you go to save a file. It will hang longer depending on the file size and speed of your computer, so those factors may be to blame.

Ya maybe, it makes my comps processor jump up to 99% usage

Morden · Post by **Morden** » Mon May 07, 2007 11:47 pm

Have you tried letting it run for a couple minutes to see if it will eventually export the file? When I was first getting into .dds files, my computer was a P4 3.2 Ghz, 1 GB of RAM, and it hung up.

its been going for like 30-45 minutes now so, idk, should it take longer or lesser time than that.

Morden · Post by **Morden** » Tue May 08, 2007 4:12 am

Yeah... its definitely just crashing your photoshop. I've never had it take longer then a minute on any computer i've used. The only thing i can suggest is checking the Nvidia forums for support:

The program saved it to .3ds, what do I do to get it in2 the CS?

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Thu May 10, 2007 1:27 am

Finally it works, now to add my creatures

Nif Scope is so awesome

Macar · Post by **Macar** » Thu May 10, 2007 12:22 pm

pretty sure that looks exactly like something from lotr.

Do you mean the orcs towers? I wouldn't say it, but i see that the last screen is almost on oblivion tower with another texture.

angelus6 · Post by **angelus6** » Thu May 10, 2007 2:04 pm

indeed. im slighty confused as to what im looking atm... new models? re-rextures of old models? both?!?!

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Thu May 10, 2007 9:09 pm

Made with NiFscope - It is a time consumed process of retextureing and combination of Oblivion Statics and my Own building design from oblivion models, Im still learning how to use a Modeling program, actually several, Autcad'02, blender, 3ds7, rhino, milk shape 3d, 3dstudio effect, just to list a few, hehe. Retexturing is easy with Photoshop

actually that photo sucks cause Nif only lets me take a Screenie from that distance

Post by **Haplo** » Thu May 10, 2007 9:14 pm

So they are just retextures?

Also, if you can zoom in anymore, you can just hit printscreen and paste it into Photoshop.

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Thu May 10, 2007 10:34 pm

Yes, im not claiming anything but the overall design idea with Nif. this was made with Oblivion Statics/models/nifs

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Thu May 10, 2007 10:38 pm

Still, I need to know How I import my creatures and armor meshes from .3ds to nif so I can create texture paths

Im not useing 3DS max's Engine to create the meshes im useing a Creature Engine that can save the meshes as .3ds file format

Macar · Post by **Macar** » Thu May 10, 2007 11:56 pm

ah, I knew it was something I'd seen before- but I was thinking of the wrong spikey bad guys.

Orix · Post by **Orix** » Fri May 18, 2007 8:43 pm

Hey, if this guy is Pickett who makes critters on ESF, hire him! Some of the stuff that guy has made is good.

Of course, I have no idea if this is the same person

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Mon May 21, 2007 8:33 pm

I just got 3DS max 9, made this right after I opened it..

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Wed May 23, 2007 2:07 am

I made a House Wall mold for my City?!?!.

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Wed May 23, 2007 2:27 am

I'm going for a pagoda type model here, I just need to figure out how to modify to get what I want.

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Wed May 23, 2007 3:44 am

6 posts in a row, must be some kind of record. Your models are nice, I like them. But please try to post them in 1 post next time.

pickettjr · Post by **pickettjr** » Thu May 24, 2007 3:35 am

If you'll look at the time stamp the pictures were taken right after I did those Models

horodnicdragos · Post by **horodnicdragos** » Thu May 24, 2007 6:10 am

Uhm, well, the ones done in 3dsmax seem to be made out of many basic shapes put up together. It's just impossible to texture that. And the polygons number will also go wild. I think you need to read some tutorials first.

Greetings

Orix · Post by **Orix** » Thu May 24, 2007 12:04 pm

Pickett, try to explain what you were doing with your first pictures. The demon thing, the golden saint and the Oblivion castle. How were you changing/modelling those things?

Screenshot are good, but showing us that you have good knowledge and skill in your description also helps.

Currently its hard to promote you because we have little idea of what you're doing.
