Aether - Lighting Helper

have my babies

Glad you guys like it. Will be interesting to see what people come up with :).

A pink map for me and Teekup! :D

Awesome! Now I can use my CG lighting in halo!

This is great news. +Rep.

Hey its FireScythe :o Thanks mate, this will really help me out.

No! I cant export the scenery models!
Maxscript doesnt work either.

Have you done everything in the right order?
1. Debug light your BSP's with Tool.
2. Populate with scenery in sapien and save.
3. Open your scenario in Aether and save a project.
4. Export your BSP bitmaps and markers from Aether. (Doesn't export models, only position and rotation).
5. Import your gbxmodels into Max using Ghosts Gbx Importer. (Personally I do this first and save all scenery to max files to XRef at this point).
6. Use the script to instance that model around the map.

It should be noted that changes you make in sapien aren't reflected in the Aether project, so if you make changes, just make a new project to overwrite the old one. Come to think of it I might drop this in the ReadMe and re upload.

EDIT: Also, the MAXScript is accessed by running it in the hammer tab on the right and selecting it in the drop down list. (Just incase you don't know).

I can do all of that but when I run the script it does nothing in both my 3ds max 9 and 2009

Are you sure your selecting it from the dropdown list? Just running it will make it appear in the list but you have to manually select it for it to load.
