Gmax/tool help plz

Post by EatYurVeggies »

Alright, I know this has been asked a dozen times, but I've never seen a guide on how to fix it in GMax, which is what I use. I have the chimp 1.6 plugin.

In command prompt/tool it said this sort of thing:

### ERROR edge #458 is open <red>.
### ERROR edge #356 is open <red>.
### ERROR edge #714 is open <red>.

I know that this means there's a hole in the model somewhere, but how do I fix it in Gmax?

Oh, and I converted it to a JMS file again, but now it says:

###ERROR model file has wrong version number

so what do I do to fix these? Help appreciated

as it sounds, you might have exported the debug info with your level.

as for the hole, you can either import the .wrl of your map located in teh halo ce directory with yoru map name in front of the .wrl OR you can go under the edge selection and click on "select open edges" wich will select any open edges.

you can either
A: click on "Collapse" when you have the open edges selected
B: use teh face/polygon creator to close the holes. *go under the polygon/face selection, then click on create and close the holles manualy*
