good evening guys

When i save a car with .z3d extension with zmodeler 1
, this file reading it with zmodeler 2 appears black and rotated 180 degrees from the initial version.

To correct this error you need to set some parameters in zmodeler 1 to see the car properly in zmodeler 2 later ?

David, there's someone with a question for you. :frank:

Maybe a problem with the pivot point or a flip of the normal orientation, but as a 3ds max user, sorry I can't help you. :smil20:

I don't know why Zmodeler1 and Zmodeler2 have different axis but its easy to reset the axis in ZM2.
Use selected mode and select all of your objects then use Display - Local Axes - Orientation - Reset to world.

Mr David,
I did your advice and the various parts of the car reappeared with the correct light
, I also have to rotate all 180 degrees for correct orientation

Zmodeler 1 is needed for old cars that were built in .mts, but unable to view this extension with zmodeler 2
, I have to save in .z3d that generates this strange behavior between the two software.

Cars saved in .3ds with Zmodeler 1 create bad shadows on the car and therefore can not use this situation.
3DS max should be ideal for doing everything, but besides not knowing it I do not know which file extensions it really is capable of managing.

Thank you for your help, I would never have come to do something alone in all these years without some good advice.
