Re: newb question
Hi Trolo8,
Copy the plug-in appropriate for your operating system in the AC3D plug-ins folder. (i.e. If you are on a Mac, copy the plug-in in the Mac folder. If you are on Windows, copy the plug-in in the Windows folder, etc.) Make sure AC3D is not running when you do this. After you copy the files into the folder, restart AC3D. You should see new options on the File > Export menu. The baseprim are pre-mapped files to help you out if you are making sculpted prims. If you are making sculpted prims and you start with one of these files instead of from scratch, it will save you the work of having to texture them. |

Re: newb question
Weird... maybe your zip utility is having problems? IZArc is supposed to be a pretty good free one. I use WinZip myself. It's not free, but I like it better than the built-in Microsoft zip mostly because of the self-extractor feature.
When I open the file in WinZip, this is what I see... the highlighted files are the ones you want to copy into your plug-ins directory if you are running Windows: |
