Topic: Question on SOD files...

[Kana]

Kana I tried to open the SOD files that I downloaded from the filefront site and Armada HQ site, with Milkshape using the SOD plugin, and it errored out saying that it could only open stock SOD files. Do you know of a way around this?

This from a discussion on another site...I have no experience with SOD or Milkshape, but I'm certain somewhere here must...

Thanks

You can either remove the restriction line from the plugin source file and re-compile it in C++. The restriction line matches the stock model file name with the file size of the stock model, so theoretically, if you had a non-stock sod, you could rename it to the name of a stock sod with the exact same file size.

You can also use Conversion Versions program located on this page: http://www.frost-works.com/stc/conversionversions/CVArchive/CV0.7.5/index.html
to directly convert the sod to mod. After it is in mod format, it becomes importable.

There is also Lithium Unwrap which can import Armada 1 sod files: http://files.seriouszone.com/download.php?fileid=198

Be careful asking this question in Armada forums, it is apparently a touchy subject with them.

 For the most part thats true. If you are gonna try exporting any of there models for any reasons please make sure you ask and get permission from there first. it took me almost a year and a half to get what permissions we at outalance have gotten from alot of there modelers over there. Bridge commander guys where a little more understanding lol
