Is there way to use this sign in Object spooner
-
You would have to download codewalker and head to where that sign is then select it and find its name and place it in your object list.... but be warned that sign most likely is combined with other objects...so yeah, you would have to make a custom .ydr which isnt that hard.

@skylumz is there a tutorial on how to make custom .ydr?

Or you just 'Export to Openfomat', say, the dummy_car, adjust the size parameters (and the right 'codec' for surface images, like you can find on any of the artwall .ydr props), and voila, you have your own custom sign!
I haven't figured out how to apply a texture to just 1 side (GTA V basically does an ALL_SIDES, to speak in Second Life terms). But you can make your sign like with totally no depth, and then slap that onto a normal-depth sign.

Then just export it to OpenFormat with OpenIV. I bet you'll be able to isolate the sign section from the .skel file.

@meimeiriver i did that but still couldnt open the odr file

Hmm, I'm beginning to wonder whether that sign is really part of that fence. I don't see anything sign-like in it.

Darn, I need to get that program! Looking at a raw .skel file is like looking at the Matrix, unencoded.
-
@Dekurwinator Hmm, Autodesk 3ds Max is like a $2,000 (!) a year subscription! That's a mite too rich for my blood. Isn't there like a normal-human priced tool I can use to edit these .skel files with?
