Thanks for solving the issue. I used visual studio C++ 2005 express with a release build. It definitely looks like something is wrong with my setup. If anyone else has another compiler or knows how to get it working in VS C++ 2005 then could they please rebuild it and upload it (source already in zip file source/bmdview.c). Otherwise I'll try to try to get it updated sometime tomorrow.
I'll try to get the textures working for Zl.arc sometime this week.

Hi spinne. I don't think the plugin is able to load these files. The plugin can only import files that can be viewed in BmdView2.

It might not be your setup that is wrong. It might just be the wrong way of compiling, or just me that have not the right tools.
On this page: http://blogs.msdn.com/junfeng/archive/2006/04/14/576314.aspx
it says:
A common mistake is to xcopy the application to a different machine without installing the VC80 CRT redist in that machine.


A different common mistake is to compile the application in debug mode, and try to use the application in a machine with only retail VC80 CRT redist installed. Application compiled in debug mode will depend on the debug version of VC80 CRT, and there is no redist for it.


In both cases, the application will not launch due to Sxs failure (not able to find VC80 CRT.).

Sp. what do you conclude from that? I only use Java as programming language, so I don't know what you need for C++.

Thanks, it looks like the redistribution libraries you mentioned need to be installed on the clients machine

32 bit system: Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86).
64 bit system: Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (ia64)

I don't have any extra PC's so I can't test this.

Sorry spinne but I won't be able to work on these files. Even if I did have some free time I don't really understand the file formats. I just converted thakis's C code to maxscript.

I will test it out as soon as I can.
But regarding the unextractable textures, why didn't BMDViewer 2 work with commandline again? Was it because of some modification you did on BMDViewer?
Isn't it possible to do the same modification of BMDViewer 2?

And Spinne, where are the BMD's from? This method are Nintendo games only, namely Zelda (TWW and TP) and Mario (Sunshine, Galaxy and Mario Kart). So if they are of another game, it's just coincidence that they have the same extension. They do not require the same formatting even if they have the same extension.

edit: I tried to download and install it, but I still get the error message when lauching the program.
But I did not restart so I will try again later today.

Fluesopp: The version of bmdview1 that I released was a binary that did nothing more than to dump some textures. It has a few bugs. bmdview2 displays bmd models, but it does not include command line support. It wouldn't be too hard to add, but it wouldn't be much fun either :)

Spinne: Those files look like bmd files from a Gameboy DS game. They use a different file format than the bmd files from the cube, so we won't be able to help you here. Try to find some DS tools.

Next time, tell us about such stuff earlier.
No need to be harsh about this, because, nearly everybody thought you would provide copyright protected material.
So next time, tell us about it and it should be all fine.

I don't live in the same time zone as you.

Theres a big difference between flaming and informing.
The only person I see flaming here is YOU.

So I tried restarting, but it still did not work. I get the same message again.
Could it be that I need a new version?

You mean you can do the command line witouth getting the error message?
What OS are you using? Vista or XP? And do you have Visual Studio installed?

I extract the plugin to the plguins folder, put bmdview.exe in the root directory, run max, run the script, but nothing happens, when I search for maxbmd in the GUI configuration but I can't find it anywheres, and in the import tab I don't see BMD in the list.
