Hi RedKetchup

I am a 3DS Max user. How do you add "points" to models in 3DS Max?

build_001, use_001, smoke etc?

Thanks

Edit: I've just found the answer to my own question, for others who want to know go to "Create" -> "Helpers" -> "Dummy" select and drag to desired size in viewport, you can scale and relocate position as required.

Sorry for double post but still having problems.

I have added dummies named "use_001", "build_001" "build_002" and "smoke" and linked all four to my "mesh"

Export from 3DS MAX as .fbx

Execute build.bat / compiler and I get the error:

Assert: Failed to find source node 'points' in 'Models\MedievalHouse.fbx' for point list!

Not sure what I am doing wrong?

you don't link them to 'mesh'
You must create an additional point called 'points' at 0,0.
Link them to 'points'.

Thank you, problem solved!

I have now managed to get my first building into Banished and working properly.
