South8028 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 If you have max 2014 then you can use the bgs exporter that comes with ck. It works with 3ds 2013 and 2014 too. With bgs exporter you can do much more for fo4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With bgs exporter you can do much more for fo4.do i have to remove the other plugin before installing ?Also it goes and creates a new folder under 2013 (also warns me about not finding 2013 when installing).I went and directed to that folder from 3dsmax as the readme suggests but i still dont see it...Question is there any way to find the collision group utility ? edit...Kinggath in his tutorial also mention that we need to use the gambryo and not netimmerse to export...but i dont have the gambryo option...

People tried to make them, but I read in the comments that collisions don't work. I'll ask the guy at ll tomorrow who has 3ds 2014 with bgs exporter about how he installed it. I have 3ds 2013 so I don't know how to do it. I dont know if he will answer me tomorrow, or when he reads my question in PM. The bgs exporter has all the tools to create all types of collisions. Also, there is a gamebryo animation manager. In addition to the bgs exporter, you may need a nif importer. It is in the f4ak package on the nexus (I have already written about it many times). Also, for the bgs nif exporter to work properly, you will then need dds fixes and set up shaders in 3ds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my issue is the plugin not having "collision: selected in the export and maybe the version of nif exporter im using....(though i did see another tutorial that used the netimmerse plugin... and had the collision box active but it was the 3.7.0.2 version exporter and im using the 3.8.0.0 Edited January 6, 2023 by greekrage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bottom line is that without bgs exporter you can't do anything but clothes. With later versions, you can animate bones in havok with hct2014, but static is closed to you. I came across a nif plugin even for 3ds 2021. But people wrote that collisions are dead everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
