Any help?
mwl4 merged my fix for this issue yesterday and compiled new windows binary so you should be able to fully convert ATS 1.38 now.

When I extract truck mod and pull the folder on converter_pix.exe nothing happens. If I use ConverterPixWrapper in Blender it works? What am I doing wrong, cause I follow the ConverterPix tutorial on YT

@Duvorynn converter_pix program is command-line only. You have to tell converter_pix what to do with the data.

Example of extracting Kenworth W900 interior to different drive from original. Use the command prompt for this:

Code: Select all

converter_pix -b C:\Mods\Kenworth_W900 -m \vehicle\truck\kenworth.w900\interior\model -e D:\Exported_Models\Kenworth_W900_exp_interior
If you suck at playing the trumpet, that's probably why.

I've never used command line, I've always just drag the folder over the exe. Never had issues doing it that way.

I know that you can do it thru cmd, but the creator itself shows on tutorial video by dragging the folder over the exe, hence my confusion.

Maybe older versions of scs files could be done that way.

Anyway, thanks for info

Thanks.

@Duvorynn try running converter pix through the command line. I remember I had a similar problem to yours, and this happened because the conversion had some errors.

Don't quote the post above - Rule 2.12
Yeah, I think that's the problem. I'm trying to convert XBS Volvo F88 from ETS2 to ATS. All sui and sii files are already done and some small tweaks to mod itself are done. I'll notify the original modder after its done and ask for permission to upload it.

Thanks for info.

Need help.

Can someone confirm if convertpix wrapper works with blender 2.92? I'm using latest SCS Blender tool.
If I try to use it & import any file from .scs, I get an error: PermissionError: Access is denied

Any help is appreciated.

UPDATE: Tried with blender 2.81 & scs tool 2.0.1. Still convertpix wrapper is not working.

UPDATE2: I'm an idiot & didn't assign a project directory before importing a model. Wrapper is indeed still working with latest blender 2.92 with scs addon 2.1.
