I know you are not giving much attention to zm2 now, but since you made the software and you ARE the expert on this, which I would likely to be having no idea what causing that to happen, mane maybe you can help me with giving me some ideas what will cause that export crash, that would so helpful to me.
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
I can recommend to set up one material exactly the same was as original material is loaded, then assign it to all objects in your scene. Then export. If not crash occur, then materials are the cause. Otherwise, your scene is a problem.
first of all, check the hierarchy, there could be duplicate names which are prohibited. remove all COL objects and replace them with COL objects from any original vehicle. COLs are very specific and you should try your mod with original, good-working COLs at first.
Poly count could give some problems too. The entire model is merged into single geometry on export, so if you have very detailed parts, all in one they could produce an excessive count of vertices/polygons on a model.

I tried the first way, not exactly the way idk , but to have the car applying to every single material, tested out both of the carbon materials, so idk if it was the texture, and thinking if the way to fix is to use another texture or not
if there is any duplicate names found it will show up in the messaging bar right? The mesh is kinda very detailed and with not IV original COLs, but tested them b4 and quite sure they are fine.

Zmod Crashes When I Import DFF's
Whenever I try to import any dff's or open certain z3d files Zmod will crash. From the looks of things I have all of the components installed that I need. Maybe I'm missing one? What might the problem be. all 2005 C++, DirectX all installed.
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
do you have materials editor and textures browser? if not, DirectX 9.0c June 2010 installation is a must.
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
Ok, I've downloaded and extracted the DirectX redistributable and it is full of numerous files which one am I looking to install
*Update* I've double checked since my last post and it looks like my comp has DirectX 11 permanently installed, DirectX 9 only seems to be installing and because of the way it is installed I can't uninstall it. Is this good or bad?

Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
you should run dxsetup.exe
having directx11 installed is not related to zmodeler, neither related to directx9 installation. By installing dx9 you will equip your system with additional libraries that Zmodeler requires.

Error When Zmod is Exited
This is a new problem that I have, excuse the double bump. When I close Zmod2 on windows vista I get the 'Windows has stopped working' message, usually after I've done some mapping but not any other time and no solutions ever come out from the 'windows is checking for a solution' feature that comes up after the crash. I'm pretty sure that it's screwing with my models coming out the way that I want them to, like chrome rims are reflecting ENV maps horribly or chrome isn't stable, it's bright then it dims as the wheel turns. I think that there is another plug-in missing, can you guess what it is from the description that I gave?
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
AppCrash on close is not related to any bugs of your mods. It is caused by inaccurate memory release in some modules. So, even if you close program and use "Save changes" on close, it will save correct .z3d file too.
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
Ok. The crash itself is still annoying though, can you say what might be causing it?
Re: ZModeler v2.2.6 (08 November 2011)
I don't remember. I had the same years ago in zmod3 and fixed it if i'm not mistaken. there were several similar issues causing appcrash on exit, to the moment zmod3 closes with no crash.
