Reading your previous post, I thought the tutorial worked for you...
What's wrong? Please be detailed in your question.

I need help. I import the file completely, and I do all of the steps. The problem starts with the registration process, I already registrated, and when I click on user GUID, it says 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'
For worse matters, after I see this I try to get into the content of the Geometrical Data Container; it says'Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DirectX, Version=1.0.2902.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.'
That one's even worse, so I decided to ask y'all what this means and how could I fix it. Can somebody help?

nelson_ts2fan_loco, for the GMDC problem, you need to install the managed DirectX there is a link to at the SimPE download page.

Thanks for the great tutorial. The only problem is, I can't get SimPE to work. How can I do that?

littlejelbea, you need to be a lot more specific about what exactly isn't working about SimPE. Also, make sure you download and install the Needed Software to run SimPE from the SimPE download page.

Whenever I open SimPE this message pops up: "C://WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.5072\mscorwks.dll cannot be loaded"
I have downloaded all the needed software

Hey, I have something else that's made me ill...how do you use the UV mapping layout propperly. I have the mesh of the Red vs Blue painting and made the frames a lot different. How do I know what kind of map to use in the UV mapper?
When I run the game, the colors are as grey as in Wings, and the colors and images I pasted in the Photoshop for my painting were placed right in the middle, crossing vertically. Is there a link of a tutorial for the propper usage of UV maps? Can somebody help on this one?

I gave this meshing another try and I understand it better now... But I still got a question:
If I import the file at the datacontainer I've got a Model more than the object I've cloned. Is that okay? Or is there a way to put things together so you get less Models?

Avaluna, no, you shouldn't have that extra model. You probably have forgotten to delete the original maxis table (read step 29).

Ah, OK; but the method is usually the same: you create a new mesh using "primitives" (cubes, spheres etc), while using the original mesh as a reference.

Let's say that the original mesh has only one model (like in the tutorial): you can create as many primitives you want, but before exporting the finished new mesh you have to:
1) delete from wings the original mesh that you used as a reference;
2) group together all the various sub-meshes that you have created in one single mesh, and rename it exactly like the original model.

But how do you groep the sub-meshes together?

First off, press the Space bar to deselect everything.

Then click on the rightmost pyramid (= model selection mode) and select the meshes you want to regroup by either clicking on the mesh themselves, or by clicking on the little pyramid next to the mesh name (in the geometry panel).

Lastly, right-click anywhere on the main screen and select the menu entry "Combine".

When done, you only have to rename the (one) resulting mesh: select its name from the Geometry panel, right-click on the name itself and choose "Rename".

kittymouse, did you have the "reference original mesh" option selected when cloning? Unselect that, otherwise the mesh will not be included into the package.
