I need a card, with the backing of the duel master's card, a simple model , make it thin.

basically its a duel masters playing card! one side of it should be white, while the other, is the back of your common duel master card. this will do.

I don't mind the little squiggly things, since a can't find a better one.

its really a simple model, can anyone help me? If anyone can give me a readily usable model like that, me and nikanorou_GR will rep you, and youll recieve recognition in my map. Thank you!!!

PS. try and get this done soon! Thank you.

I'm no modeller (yet!) but I'll tell ya what. I'll give it a try. I cannot do animations though and there is no export script for 3DS MAX 8 (as far as I know) so I'll send you the model file and you can convert it yourself cool? I'll give you a screenshot as well. Just give me a few minutes, doing homework at the same time.

I'm only posting now so you know I'll try it.

Thanks! but i myself have no idea how to convert it, i think you need a program, yobgul's converter i think. Anyways, you don't know how to make animations? can you please just try and make a death animation where the card breaks into pieces? :D that would be great. But its fine if you don't know how to make animations.

this might help you :D http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/magos.php

I'll try.

All that you need to do to convert it is the following:

Get GMAX (if you don't have it I can post it)

Get the converter and convert it.

Since I don't use GMAX and I can't find a version of the converter that supports my version of 3DS MAX, I can't convert it myself. It shouldn't be a prob though.

Okay so I tried (I created a card-shaped polygon perfectly) but when I went to add the texture, we had a bit of a problem. The texture appeared as all black rather than your card picture. I have a feeling I just don't know what I'm doing. Sorry. :(

BTW, Wind Dragon, there is a way to export models from 3DSMAX 6 and higher. Select all the model you created and, on the 'File' menu, click Export mesh. The file you will get can be opened in Gmax. Then you simply export it using Dex' exporter. However, this works only for meshes and, there is another problem: dex' exporter sucks... and, unfortunately, it's the best... The best deal in wc3 modelling is to get 3DSMAX 4 or 5 and use Blizzard's Art Tools.

don't you have to make a seperate skin file, and then wrap it around the model? instead of just sticking it onto the model itself. Im not sure, cuz thats what i heard

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
