ACM Question

Post by aerogator »

Hi guys,

I am running Windows 7, 64 bit and have installed Windows XP virtual in order to run some older programs, ACM being the main one. I installed ACM but cannot get past the "Configuration" dialog box. I set "FS location" but don't know what "output location" is. Any help appreciated :)

Thanks,

Jake

Do you mean "Export Location"? Mine is set to FSDS C:\Program Files\Abacus\FSDS_V3\plugins. I think it's a left over from prenious versions where you could decompile the .mdl file.

OK, I pasted in the address of "Plugins", clicked "OK" but it stayed on that dialog box. Shouldn't it continue with the set-up?

Thanks,

Jake

Thanks, Jason. Now one more question. Do you or does anyone have the manual? I can't figure out which little colored squares are what and what to do with them.

Thanks,

Jake

Squares are contact points, static cg height, lights effects etc.

Here's the manual in word format.

Thanks, Mike. I have figured a lot out since the last post. I had never really looked at all of the functions before. What a great program! :D
