GET 3DMM AND ITS EXPANSIONS IN HERE

Breed · 02:00 AM

Actual downloads of the 3dmm program:
3dmmfiles Mirror
archive.org Mirror
3dmm + WINE for Mac OS X
Modern Installer (Install inside Program Files to avoid problems)
3DMM Virtual Machine (Can't get 3DMM working on your system? A virtual machine is a catch-all solution!)

Necessary expansions:
No CD patch
Frankie's Expansion Pack 0.18
Doraemon Expansion Pack
Doraemon Translation Pack
Nickelodeon 3D Movie Maker Expansion Pack
V3dmm 0.14

Other tools:
3dmm Animation Pro 2.7 (3dmmAP2) (essential for doing complex scene movements. Probably the most handy tool in all of 3dmm land) Note: Includes texture-scrolling and sceneed script files. Move them into the 3dmmap\scripts folder.
3dmm Capture (necessary tools for capturing 3dmm movies to avi, see this thread for more info.)
3dmm Pencil (lets you mess with the internals of 3dmm datafiles.) Note: You must extract 3DMM Pencil to a directory of your choice, and copy 3DMOVIE.EXE into this directory before it will work. -Haynes
7gen (lets you make expansions, textures, and other stuff like that) <instructions on installing>|<7gen For Dummies - Actor Extractor>|<7gen For Dummies>
BMDL2OBJ Tools (converts 3dmm's native .bmdl model format into .obj, which is readable in all 3D modelling programs, and vice-versa, for model editing.
Ogg Vorbis Codec remover (some people get an error message for no reason when trying to run 3dmm. Use this if symptoms point to Ogg Vorbis)
Py-Q (use this to put full quality sound files in your movies)
Sound Extractor (take out 3dmm default sounds, recorded or imported sounds and convert them to a playable file)
The 3dmm -> GIF maker, Spider2.1 (create animated GIFs from your movie clips)
3D Fonts and Font Letter Maps (3D fonts that have a variety of shapes and awesomenesses. Also click link for map of letters for each font.)
3dmm MIDI Converter (Convert the 3dmm midi's into a useable format, like for ringtones etc!)
3DMM MIDI library, courtesy of Terrum
3DMMFPS (Change the framerate 3dmm runs at -- see this thread for details on making it work with v3dmm.
Chunk Explorer (see this thread for more info)
3DMM Actor Extractor (extracts actors from 3DMM for modification.)
Cursor Fix (run this while 3DMM is running. Fixes the "jumpy" cursor issue on Windows 10, see here for more info)
VMM Cleaner (removes unused expansions from your movie to lower the file size)
CalcRunTime Calculate the runtime for .3mm or .vmm files. Doesn't count dissolves or credit box time. May not be 100% accurate, but it's close.
Instructions (for CalcRunTime):
1. Extract into the same directory as a .3mm or .vmm file
2. Start > Run > cmd
3. cd to the directory with the files
4. calcruntime filename.3mm
5. calcruntime filename.3mm -xp (for XP speed movies)

You can also find all of these at 3dmm Studio, along with tons of other stuff.

To install 3DMM and the Expansions:

1. Download 3DMM (note: goes up and down depending on bandwidth usage), extract from the zip or rar archive if necessary, and run setup.exe in the 3DMOVIE100 folder.
2. Once it's installed, run the no-CD patch, OR copy all of the files from 3DMOVIE100\3DMOVIE to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Kids\3D Movie Maker. Yes to All on overwriting.
3. Unzip and install Frankie's Expansion. Default settings.
4. Unzip and install Doraemon. Default settings.
5. Unzip and install Nickelodeon. Default settings.
6. Unzip and install v3dmm. Default settings.

That's all you need to watch any 3DMM movie. Further instructions for moviemaking purposes:

7. Download and install whatever expansions you like from the Mods Page to be able to use them in v3dmm. Alternately, whatever expansions are used in any v3dmm movies you watch will be available for use after opening the movie once.
8. Download the 7gen archive. This tool requires Python 2.5-2.7 and a matching pygame version. 7gen itself consists of 7gen.py, and three directories named bin, code, and docs, and can be copied and used in any folder without an install exe. (note that 7gen can only see image or model files inside the directory it resides in). A 7gen tutorial can be found here.

AWESOME I'LL ADD IT IN!

Denny Betterman · 06-22-2006, 12:25 AM

Remove the Updater from the list: This thread obsoletes its purpose AND it worked only with v3dmm.com anyway, which is down, so the Updater doesn't even work.

BUT YEAH, GOOD GOOD

Breed · 06-22-2006, 12:26 AM

DONE. If anyone else wants to add anything to the list just say so.

Pirate Balloon · 06-22-2006, 12:54 AM

The 3dmmstudio.co.uk mirror doesn't work. And I dont mean to blow my own horn here, but my mirror is the fastest

.

Oh, if i remember correctly, my 3dmm link comes with a bunch of expansions in a folder within it (hence extra file size), i'll check tomorrow.

Ned · 06-22-2006, 01:00 AM

Good work, Tom. Way past overdue.

Jalal · 06-22-2006, 01:01 AM

TOM BREED FTW!

Aaron Haynes · 06-22-2006, 01:44 AM

Someone should make one for basic utilities too. 3dmmap, 7gen, obj2bmdl tools, soundextractor, spider2, etc.

Jalal · 06-22-2006, 01:46 AM

I can take a wack at it.

Phil Williamson · 06-22-2006, 01:59 AM

why not just add them to this thread?

Jalal · 06-22-2006, 02:17 AM

Yeah, I think that would be better.

Breed · 06-22-2006, 02:56 AM

Added more. Any specific requests, make them in this thread and I'll link them

Phil Williamson · 06-22-2006, 04:00 AM

Shootfast · 06-23-2006, 07:14 AM

We're up to 7gen 0.3c now I think, at least thats the version I have. I'm not sure if its still on anyones webspace though.

Tuna Hematoma · 06-23-2006, 09:56 PM

I downloaded whatever was on DOT CO DOT UCK's site

Pirate Balloon · 06-28-2006, 07:38 PM

The 3dmm -> GIF maker, Spider2.1

And Dustin dude, your sig's too big... shouldn't have to tell you

Breed · 07-03-2006, 08:02 AM

Can someone please tell me what Objtools does, so I can add it to the first post?

Breed · 07-05-2006, 03:07 AM

ADDED NOOB HOLLER.

Shootfast · 07-05-2006, 12:24 PM

OBJtools fixes a problem in 7gen when people want to convert OBJ's made in Blender or some other 3d modeling programs
