Access violation while converting a model?
« on: February 27, 2010, 15:33:03 »
I've run into a problem, where I can't convert the model into Nexus' msh format. The converter gives me the following error:

Code: [Select]
Access violation at address 10006FF4 in module 'lwolib.dll'. Read of address 00000000
Does anyone have an idea?

PS: I also can't view it using Nexus' model viewer.

I know only two cases when this appears. First case - too many polygons/triangles. Second case- there are things on a model that use only newer version of Lightwave (e.g catmull-clarke or multi-text).

Think I may hve run into this too (can't quite recall the specifics as it was a year or so ago), in my case it turned out to be what I'd call a 'dodgy' poly.

Really slowed things down as I had to search for and redo the blasted things.
Better to look the fool by asking, then prove them right with ignorance.

Great :(

I've managed to identify some of the ship's turrets as causing the error, so for the time being I just removed them from the model. Will need to have a closer look at why they can't be converted...
