Hu.. that's strange.
I can't import anyting anymore.
Only when I use an older zmodeler2.exe (build 957) and an older gtaiv.zmx 2.2.1.120 I can import anyting.
How is that possible? Exporting works just fine.
I got also an error:
! Service "services::CLocalizationService" initialization failed file:ReposLibs.cpp line:377
! Error parsing language file "Russian (2).xml". file:LocalizationService.cpp line:172
!
ZModeler is ready.

Anyone has this problem? How can I solve it?

G-texture is the tool you need.It can create custom .wtd archives with dds textures.

I'm having this same issue and if there is not a fix i might just release it with the issue because I wanna be the first to have made this mod! I would like to do it properly and it there is a way to fix the half and half reflections that flicker when tire is in motion and it is when i'm using tire as the material name not rim1 that would be great .... Oleg said something about GTA4:BUMP 0.1 in user defined options but when I set that (which i think i'm doing right O.o) there is no change.

What I did was import a ingame model set all textures and then change the shape of some model parts and other thing not assoicated with the ingame wheels (I left them alone) then I exported.... when i load the game I get the reflection error on the tire material.... now i have seen mods without this error so um how did they do it lmao!

Export error (job completed):

(The file 885a_appcompat.txt not exist).

Fixed: The format z3d remains materials which are no longer used.

oleg my supra is ready to be released i just want to ask u onething first i release a beta
is possible to have another brakelight on it?because i have brakelight left and right,but the supra has a brakelight on the boot that is always white,and become red when u brake.
if possible to have a 3rd brakelight dummy placed in the boot dummy ?and is possible to make it white as now it is and let become its red when brakes?

btw i think is too hard for me doing a prelight on body xD

Thats because you didnt create a normalmap and added it in materialeditor as a bumpmap. After applying the normalmap as bumpmap and adding GTA4:BUMP in shaderinformation the bad reflections are fixed.
Did it for my own and did it on Neos7 supra

It's possible look at GTA IV cars... some of them have a third brakelight too and it reacts like a "stand alone" break... just import any type of car and look into it

Yeah and the prelight stuff is interesting.... have to try it next xD
