You should write that you found this script online I know on what site because it was my script and it somehow got leaked, fortunately it's just the import part.

[.Bloodseeker]

Ohh you only releas the import part ._.

[>Trib°lex<]

I thought that it's yours so added your name in thread

In fact I reported that link and provided proof that it was mine, and they kindly deleted it. But sadly some people still got it; not much of a problem, since it's just the import part, and it doesn't even handle heightplanes.

[Kasimashii]

How can we export with this ?

But from import part some people can write export part.
So i think in maximum 2 Weeks it is fully public.

[heroe1992]

was soll des bringen wenn mans nicht exportieren kann ?

[.Ultimate.]

And how can i export it?

[MissUnderstoodOne]

I could write an exporter but.... I'm too lazy, so just wait, some dumbass how's THX-***** gonna release it within a few days

[thepratic]

Na danke exportieren Sie das Skript noch?

Up !

[DEMONKING.]

thanks

but how to export to mdatr >>>>??

thanks

but how to export to mdatr >>>>??

[TheTutMan]

Use this

[Syndicаte]

please write the exporter, dont know how to export :/
