So...I got sidetracked from a project (again...).
I suddenly wanted to convert the old Federation Freighter from SFC1 into Armada 2 as a large bulk freighter. I was abel to find the ship model in SFCI and open it up into MS3D. Then able to convert the textures to TGA and mount them to the model. I was able to export it and then rigged with hardpoints. When I finished building it in A2, the model was grey as hell. In MS3D and UTMV, the the textures are fully visible, so I'm not sure what's happening. I checked out a TGA file opener to see if the files were bad, and they're not. So...I'm at a stand still as I'm not sure what's causing them. My current guess it's because I imported the model from SFC then straight to A2 is where I'm having issues...but as you can see, everything should be working. That said, something obviously isn't.
Any help would be appreciated.
Files are attached incase someone needs to see the files. Side note, there are a lot of unused texture file and renamed odfs as I renamed it a couple of times in case there was a bad conversion at someone, so it's mostly junk. But what I call junk/unneeded could be the solution, so they were included.
*As a foot note, I had a crazy idea to convert the model into Bridge Commander, and found I could NOT mount any textures to it ad was covered in a black texture. Even after I applied the textures...so does that mean I can't convert it?
