Yudi,

Use the Library Editor and your life will be much easier.
Read chapter 7 of the plug-in manual (PDF ) for all details.

QUOTE
This tool will let you import more than one piece of furniture at a time either with a classic file
dialog displayed by the Import furniture tool, or by dropping the files in the window of the tool
if your system supports this feature.

I've tried FurnitureLibraryEditor-1.1
some models are not imported as I want.

the model's color are not the same, and some models become strange shape.
is there any tools that can fix this kind of problem. since I'm not that kind of expert person [:((]

the major problem, I can't save the library.

I attach the file File


try to import the furniture and then save the library. the running test window shows that file already saved, but actually it doesn't.

is there any way to fix this kind of problem

thank you

Yudi,

Here are the results from my test.
- I inspected the zip file, and saw that two textures have strange file names, containing nonsense characters.
- I started the Library Editor
- I imported the model; it displayed the model in white, without applying the textures
- when I tried to save the library, my (Ubuntu) computer froze completely, and I had to restart it

My guess is that the file is somehow corrupted. You can try to download it again. If that doesn't solve the problem, I think you can better search another model.

Thank for the effort Hans, I really appreciate that

Hans, do you have any suggestion about any program that can apply texture and fix strange shape?

Yudi,

To adapt 3DS models you can use:
1 - Misfit 3D (link) if you install a plug-in
2 - Art of Illusion (link), if you install a plug-in
3 - Blender (link) which is very powerful, but not very easy to use.
