Converting Voxels to SHPs (*)

Required:

difficulty: monkey (very,very easy)

I suggest this is only for non-animating voxels

1. Open up the voxel you want in voxel viewer.
2. Change the view to "in game TS/RA2" and uncheck the boxes next to "draw ground" and "draw sky".
3. Then choose "make 360 animation" make 2 of them, one 8 frames, the other 16 frames. (sometimes it has a nasty habit of cause ing some frames to be blank so you can copy over from the second one.
4. Open up an animator of your chocie and load the animations. Copy the images from the 8 frame animation (and some backups from the 16 one if you have blank frames) onto a bitmap (or whatever floats your proverbial boat).
5. the load up Shp builder and paste them into their respective directions.
(you will do a lot of pasting.)

Ding! you're done! And thank you for playing "Durrandi's Tutorial!"

1. This is the RA2 tutorials forum, so it's obviously for RA2. However the same would work in TS too.
2. This topic is 6 years old and Durrandi hasn't been active since 2006.
3. Please make yourself familiar with the forum rules and the subforums. Then you don't run into posting questions in the tutorials forum (as you did with your first post), post links to warez, bump very old topics or ask questions to things which obviously answer themselves. (for me all this would be already a reason to give you a big warning or even a temporary ban; however to decide this is up to Banshee)
