NFS-GeoEd v0.5.2 ALPHA | Released | Update: 16 Nov 2009

This will not open up Geometry from Most Wanted and Undercover I would love to see the next release have support for Underground, Most Wanted, Carbon, ProStreet and Undercover.

Let's not pressurize dav. Time will tell whether we will see other games being supported by the converter.
It's already pretty exciting to see new cars in the UG2-Showroom.
I vote for this being posted in the NFSCars News-Section!!!

Absolutely. Although it might be a better idea to hold off the publicity until the app reaches the beta stage at least. I'm sure the author wouldn't appreciate too many complaints about various quirks and unresolved incompatibilities coming too soon.

Yeah, I know, I'm not asking for a release. Just some custom rims or something to show it's working properly.

+1

Zonda is also looking great. Some small application fixes and it'll be perfect

Some Questions about GeoEd and other...

1. Is it possible to use many matarials on one part (couse when I export model from max there 5 materials on the part, but when I import it to GeoEd and open mat ed there is only one material, but maping is corect if look in viewer, so it seems that all materials are just merged)
   
2. Is it possible to add or delete mount points, I mean if I need for example 4 mount points for exoust and the replaced car has only one will it be possible to add more (for example in MW we could use unlimited number of dumies\mount points (no matter now it's called ) so will it be posible in U2)
   
3. Is it possible to change diameter of exoust flame
   
4. Will it be possible to replace textures in TEXTURES.BIN with bigger ones, I mean use textures larger then 512*512
   
5. And finaly how change wheels position? I'm almoust sure that it just like in MW stored in some files in GLOBAL folder, so we need smth like VLTedit just for U2

That's all for now

PS: This thread should be sticked

This features will be available in next release.

Is it possible to change diameter of exoust flame

What do you mean?

Will it be possible to replace textures in TEXTURES.BIN with bigger ones, I mean use textures larger then 512*512

At now not.

And finaly how change wheels position? I'm almoust sure that it just like in MW stored in some files in GLOBAL folder, so we need smth like VLTedit just for U2

Yes, but I don't know where this data is stored.

I mean on tuned exoust tips the nitrous flame is thick to fit the tips diametr, when on stock it's thin, so will it be posible just to change the eem size of nitrous flame on stock exoust.

[MostEdwardo1]

There should be a function, later of course, to create Textures.bin with bigger texs. and a better 3d viewer(to move mount points and look around the scene like in zmodeler) also this tool is a bit too complicated than the texed's
maybe make it a bit simpler as in usage(user friendly)
these are suggestions

[RuubW]

Ok, I know nothing about modelling and NFS modding, but these are my ideas:

- Maybe a ZModeler plugin, so that the geometry files can be loaded into it.
- A modloader or something? I mean, I don't know how all of this works, so we need a tool that can be used to replace cars in an easy way.

[AJ_Lethal]

There's a problem: doesnt export material data.

[Robin'7t4]

Bingo!
I've found where are wheel positions. They are stored in GlobalB.lzc
check this:

change those '97' to (for example) '57' , then save and run the game and you'll see Ford Focus's front wheels are moved to the back, change to higher numbers and the wheels will go to the front.

It is very helpful information. I will add car data editor for NFS-GeoEd.

Robin'7t4, I don`t understand my situation: I export model with options as on your screenshot, but at import there is memory leak and the program shut down with C++ error. This is screenshot:

[Robin'7t4]

i don't know, it works for me, maybe install 'visual c ++ package' (vcredist) or something...

[PhantomDevil]

Installing lastest visual c++ package was not helped

[victor1]

now we need a cars sub-section at nfsu2 section!

This error is not caused by memory leak. This error is fixed in version on I'm working now.

[GRIMEYtheFATMAN]

Ho... ly... sh...

It's finally happening - there will finally be new cars available for the newest Need for Speed that my computer actually runs well(Most Wanted barely runs on minimal settings, and I'm sure attempting to run Carbon on this thing would likely brick my comp...)!

I hope to someday replace the Focus with the Cobalt SS from MW and the H2 with some huge sexy beast by Robin...

Just wonderin', though - does this mean that we'll be able to get the Corsa and 106 in the US version without necessitating those special save files?

Agreed with this only at the time when Dav_Poland successfully finished the project.

This thread has convinced me to get the game for PC.

[Born2k1LL]

Today I download the geoed and texed to work on my u2... nice ... everything works I do some texture editing and its its cool... whatever.. here is the problem - after last edit all of my files of the game ( I mean in game folder\GLOBAL... or game folder\CARS) become in format "Archive TexEd" or something like that, and my game doesn't want to start anymore :0 ( for example - the file "globalb.bun" became only "global" - wTF?! and in the under the name of the file is written "archive texed" ... ) where is the f**kin" problem with my game - I delete the program, but it don't works. What I'm supposed to do? I have a lot of mods in my game - almost all of my cars were over 1000bhp and stuffs like that, I was thinkin' to release my mod soon here, but now it's impossible if I fix the problem i will work on that to add some new cars (btw dav_POLAND u're the best man ;D great programs) Sorry for my bad english, if someone can help me but doesn't know what I'm writing here, tell me I will do some pics of my problem.

please dont spam with requests. dav is only making the tool . so put you requests in the request thread . his tool is to make cars, but the tools is still in Alpha so and .

[Freak-DS]

Hmm well I started to try replacing parts, but I have no idea what the materials have to be like. The new parts are all blue, shiney and blink ingame very fast. What do the materials have to be named like and such?

yeah, hopefully.

@Dav, whenever I try to replace the body a object, geo-ed does not save the texture and material settings. I got a texture working on the wheel now, but when i do the same steps with the body model and try to put itinto U2, it keeps crashing when loading the car - why?

there is bug in material editor which is fixed in version on I am working now.

@Freak-DS

This data is probably in globals.lzc. I try to find this when I will write data editor for NFS-GeoEd.

New version features:
- updated mount points list
- updated exporter to version 1.3
(exported files has material data)
- added clear checked parts function
- fixed importing from .OBJ format
(now program do not crash)
- fixed material editor
- added functions ADD and DELETE to mount points editor
- fixed compatibility with archives saved by NFS-TexEd
- added zoom information in viewer bar

Write any suggestions or mount point for update.

[AJ_Lethal]

Add a "export all" function

[DKBrigzs]

sorry about it i just can't help it i'm so exited sorry

Please don't double post.

Hmm... Well, I'm staying with my suggestion for some kind of modloader. I mean, I don't know anything about this modelling stuff, and how I would have to get new cars into the game.

And another question: this may sound dumb, but will custom rearview mirrors be available?

[DKBrigzs]

i try downloading the tool and its dll but it gives me an error whats the prob?

[S.L]

@ dav_POLAND : good job man !!

really nice ! i've got back my NFS UN2 DVD i'll try somthing


ah ! is there any chance to make a direct exporter and importer " filter " to Zmod1.07b or newers ?

good luck to you with the rest man !
