Hi, I'm new to modding and want to start learning, Watched the tutorial videos, but every time I try loading a i3d file, like the grimmieRooster604 i3d file I get these warnings,

Any ideas on what is wrong, thanks.

Hi,

as it seems you only have copied the i3d file but none of the other files.
(Not all information is stored in a i3d file, e.g. textures)

The paths inside a i3d file are normally relative, at least in the default vehicles.
This means that you have to copy all necessary files too (e.g. textures, shaders and i3d.shape file)

If you want to edit a file you should use the "Export all with files" command in the GIANTS Editor and export the vehicle to any location outside of the root directory of the game.
Probably that would be in the mods folder ;)

Cheers,
Emil

I am having this same exact problem on Giants Editor 7.0.5, on every thing, even the sample mods
