any news on new forza studio?

Watch few pages back and you'll see some needed information to know.

Energien, may a suggest you something about the second set of coordinates you get for UV mapping?
I don't think it's a scale factor, but a onmap placement coordinates.
When I edit UV map with your last version of Forza Studio, I think that mapping coordinates are correct, but extended on all the surface of the texture, from full top to bottom, and full left to right.
I think that second mapping coordinates you've mentionned indicates the upper left point of mapping, and lower right point of mapping into the texture square (or maybe lower left nd upper right).
I don't know if I'm very precise, so here is an attached picture of what I mean.

Do you see what I mean? Or do I detail my theory?
Thanks for keeping an eye on that.

Sorry, mistake on new area on my second sample...
Here is my suggestion:

[AirOne]

Is the format of the second set of coordinates like (x,y), with both values included between 0 and 1024 or 2048? Then this should be this...

[Ernegien]

Interesting, you may be onto something. Both sets of UV coordinates are within the range of 0 to 1, but the second set seems to be much larger than the first.

[AirOne]

I've checked on several models for lot of textures, and each time UV mapping is maximized on texture map, so this second set of coordinates should be the input and output rectangle delimitation of mapping area into the whole square.

good work on the extractor! you have no idea what have you opened up for us Street legal racing redline moders thanks a lot.

[Eliaajz]

It would be awesome if this problem was fixed as I am so desperate of the 240SX model and I barely got time for modeling so I can't mess with the UV-MAP problem for Zmodeler2. Ernegien, your doing a GREAT JOB on these programs, better than anyone else would do it and hopefully you and some other people will come up with an solution. I'm waiting for updates.

Hello. I have unpacked FM3 cars without any problem before, and I'm thankful for your work! This time I had no success. I tried to open .carbin files with versions 7.9.10 and 10.17.11, on two different systems, here are the error messages:

PC1

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

I have no idea what's wrong, I even tried to edit the registry as it suggested, but there is no Fusion!EnableLog in my registry. Do you know what could be wrong? Thanks.

@above,

I don't think they work on FM3 models.
You have to use the older versions to open the FM3 models.

You don't have .NET Framework 3.5 installed (or at least not properly). You should reinstall it, or get hold of required .NET Framework 3.5 assemblies. Most (simple) 3.5 apps require only System.Core and System.Xml.Linq. Put them next to the application.
