.XAC and .XMF Files

[Urillch]

Hello All, I am new to the X modding scene. I've been following the tutorials on getting started to mod X4: Foundations but I've run into a problem of opening up[ and reading these .xac and .xmf files. In addition, the models I've created have no option for exporting to .xmf or .xac. I am assuming that .xmf is an info file and can be read like an FBX or OBJ of any kind but .xacI am at a lost. I just want to see if there is a converter I have to use or any way to point me in the right direction of what tool I have to use to get my .fbx models in the x4 foundations world. Thank you for reading.

Hi,

Did you look in the Rebirth Modding forum ? X4 is very similar to XR so you can mostly (if not completely) follow the instruction there :
3D modding starter guide by Observe
XMF/XAC converter

For the converter, go to the end of the thread (page 11) to get the correct download link.

This converter has not been completed yet and in X4 it works incorrectly with many models (mostly broken UV coordinates) :(
