LI2ME - Lego Island 2 Mesh Exporter Plugin LI2ME is just another modding tool for Lego Island 2. This is a plugin written for Milkshape 3D to save you custom models and meshes in Lego Island 2's *.MSH-format. I decided to develop this plugin for Milkshape 3D, because it gives you huge ability in interacting with many other formats. My first choice was to develop a plugin for Blender, but as it's not supporting that many formats it would have been not as flexible as with Milkshape 3D. Features This plugin cares for everything itself. That means that even your meshgrouping and texture coordinates are overtaken into the *.MSH-format. Furthermore it will calculate normals in realtime. You can chose between smooth and straight normals, which will lets you control wether to let your model appear more edgy or more softly ingame. Since the version 0.1.0 it supports collision files. That means, you can tick a checkbox on the plugin which will create a *.col-file besides the *.msh-file with the same name. For now, it will simply generate a single axis-aligned bounding box around your model. Screenshots Download You can download the plugin on the Sourceforge page (This plugin is, just like LI2GE and LI2TA, opensource and under GNU-GPL license) Installation To use this plugin you need to download Milkshape 3D. You need to activate Milkshape 3D by probably buying it. Please mention that we won't discuss here on how to crack that software or where to get serials. The whole export plugin is combined in one single DLL-file. From the downloaded archive, just copy the "msMSHExporter.dll" and paste it into your Milkshape 3D installation folder "../Program Files/MilkShape 3D 1.8.4/*paste here*". Be sure to not change the name of the plugin ("msMSHExporter.dll"). Milkshape 3D is registrating new plugins by it's first letters "msXXX.dll". Bugs & Improvements LI2ME isn't outgoing tested. When you have improvements, problems or you are encountering bugs, please feel free to create a ticket on the SourceForge project page. Remember that you are helping other people too with your commitment. Have fun! :-)

Now seems like a good time to bring up this sheet of LEGO Loco character designs, some of which obviously... got revised: Yep. Those are legitimately 3D busty minifigs. That (almost) happened.

This sound seems to be hardcoded anywhere. Maybe anyone can find it? A cool thing with the engine.pcm is that you can insert any other sound there (it has then different pitches, depending on how fast you drive). A cool engine sound is shield2.pcm or shield1.pcm and as idle sound use shield0.pcm. The bad thing about that is the sound that is probably hardcoded and so you still hear the normal engine sound when stopping to accelerate (in german: 'den Wagen rollen lassen'). When you want to change some sounds, make sure they are placed there where you want to have them. For example you want to remove the player's honk and give him redbeard's honk. Then you write horn06.pcm where the player's honk is set (horn01.pcm). So you just change horn01 to horn06 and then you recompile, ...

Tried multiple times with one instance only, it's no good. It simply won't touch any of the .cab files.
