milkshape 3d 1.7 Created 20 years ago2004-01-02 06:02:40 UTC by black mesa

has any1 else had any trouble with milkshape 3d 1.7? Becuase after i opened it it said error in <unknown>. Should i download a previous version or what? Grateful for any help.

Hm, well, all I can recommend is reinstalling/updating your graphics drivers.

This probably isn't the best place to ask since it's not a modelling site We'll help if we can though. Try the official forums for Milkshape if there are any?

the forums don't work right now

I had to hunt hard to find a working link for MS3D. Make sure you got a good download. It's only good for 30 days too.

I tried importing a Poser model into MS3D but didn't use it because the vertex count was phenomenal. Wanted to maka a naked chick walking around the lab and have all the sci's following her around. LOL

How do you use Milkshape to make models? I made it, but how do you compile it into a .mdl?? never works.

there is a series of tutorials on MS on 79-th

79th? sry, as you know, I'm kinda new to mapping.

I guess you mean 69th Vlatitude

But vlatitude almost never gets updated.

Yes it does, look at the forums,
and look at out news page..

does any1 know of any free programs (with no 30 day restrictions)?
can't i get past the 30 day restriction by re-installing milkshape?

Nope. Reinstalling Windows? Perhaps...

if your milshape crashes try http://www.swissquake.ch/chumbalum-soft/files/mesa31dlls.zip and put em with the ms3d.exe

My MS3D broke after i tried to crac... umm, USE it after the 30day thingy. Now none of the versions work for me
So lame, i wanna model!
Damn! Damn! Damn!

then buy the thing.. or get a converter and use another modeling prog... and for the love of god don't ry and 'crack' programs like that.. its not only sad, but it kills any future development - you're shooting your self in the foot

its only like 20 bucks.... not a big investment... they did take the time to make the damn thing and time is money so fork over yours heh...

IMHO milkshape should only be used for converting.

lol, imo milkshape, 'useful' as it is, is not worth TWENTY QUID and never will be. Its a poorly made app and only good as an intro to modelling, there are better freeware apps out there.

amen.... milkshape is used only for the file conversions and decompiling HL mdl files... at least... on my computer thats all its good for... as for the 30-day restriction... meh... i usually reinstall windows fairly regularly too... try doing a system registry backup before u install it... then when u remove it... clean the registry so it goes back to what u saved... reinstall milkshape and you should get another 30 days... if not... reinstall windows...

Did anyone notice?
