for those looking for an updated version aczel2 made this

After so many years I don't even have any of the tools and plugins needed to make mwm files from fbx files. I don't even remember all the quirks related to exporting parts of hangar doors which I remember were quite special. Even more so if you wanted people to be able to walk on it...

Since I don't really play Space Engineers anymore and basically only take care of my scripts for quite some time, I would be happy to leave it for you (or someone else willing to do it) to take care of this completely if you manage to get the models working.

I see your roadblock. Converting .mwm file back to .fbx seems to be hard to achieve. I've spend about an hour on it, and will spend more later. I've sent you a friend request so I can link you the files when I figure it out. I actually don't have expertise in this at all, but my goal is to be able to open the models in blender, and hopefully you can take it from there.

It's weird that a game as modable as SE doesn't give you a way to revert files from their game-ready state in the sdk

That's not how it works. Anyway - it's a lot of work to make and maintain models based on hangar doors like this one and I don't plan to do it again from scratch as I already have other interesting (at least for me) things to do.
If you know how to "rip the models out of this one and rebuild it" feel free to do so yourself I will happily give you my permission to use it.

You've had a long time to rip the models out of this one and rebuild it. Why haven't you? I keep this one subscribed in the hopes that you might fix it one day.

Hi. As the first line of description says:
This mod is outdated. Unfortunately I cannot find the original files for it so I have no way to update it :(

I'm sorry about that - it's my fault when I replaced PC I lost the original files.

It had not been updated since 2015, do you expect it will ?

The hitboxes for the bridges are strange, when walking on the underside, players sink halfway through the model. If you drive a rover onto the underside, you shoot off into the sky, When attempting to walk overtop of it, you are blocked, when you jump onto it, you float half a block above the bridge. This is one of my most favorite mods of all time, please fix.

glass 1x1x1 please

Exactly what I've been searching for. Very nice creation. Unfortunately, the tread is unstable for me. On a rotor as a landing ramp ... can you see my dreams?

retractable solar panels PLEASE

mate i have an idea: get another computer or borrow someone else's

get space engineers

get this addon

go into files

find original files

done.

jfc don't harass mod authors

I think Sektan's still work, but they aren't glass

Bummer. I came here to report a bug :(

I sink in when i walk on them, and sometimes die :P

whatever dude

What are you accusing me of? I don't even know what you are talking about. I just gave you polite generic advice which is very good to know for anyone.

My point was you can extract the files from the sbm. Which you can. You said you can yourself. That was my point. Your just being a arse now bruh. :)

I can do an example response that is based on your first comment to show you what I mean:
You didn't know that it is not possible to get source model files from a mod? LOL

How does that sound to you? Does it look like I wanna know answer to that question or does it look like I'm making fun of you?

What are you even talking where did i act like like anyway of what your are accusing.

No, because of reasons I explained earlier regarding the MWM file (mwm and sbc files are contained inside the sbm zip file). You cannot open MWM file in 3d editor .. mwm file is made from the original source files, but you cannot reverse the process to get the source files back from the mwm file (at least as far as I know).

I'm sorry that this mod is not working anymore .. but as they say .. shit happens :)

PS: If you don't really know how stuff works it's very risky to behave like you know better and make fun of people. If you are wrong it makes you look very rude and stupid to anyone that knows how stuff really works and many people wouldn't be so polite in explaining ;) It's rude even if you know how stuff works :D

Have a nice day and have fun!

Yeah that. Can you not use that to get the files. Then update those.

So you meant the sbm file that is basically just renamed zip file created by the game when you upload mod to workshop. Ok and what was your point?

I meant the file that it downloads when you subscribe to this from the workshop. Ive extracted contents from other mods this way

sbc doesn't contain files, it is XML file used for defining objects and their attributes within game - you can check it out yourself by opening it in text editor. The 3d model itself along with physics colliders and any gizmos used to define the behavior / animation of the object is compiled into mwm file and there is no reverse process that I'm aware of.

you cant extract the files from sbc ? lol

NOOOO THIS MOD IS BROKEN

the glass part of the bridge has the collison box of a block

can do solar panel Retractable

Read description: This mod is outdated. Unfortunately I cannot find the original files for it so I have no way to update it

...

But could it be resurrected using the files downloaded from here?

sad still no update, anyone have a fix for that or a good bridge to use instead ? i really need it for bridge extending on airtight ship areas or on ground to cover an hole...

As stated below a few times :p, hitboxs are broken... Pls fix

*BUMP*

The mod is broken, please update.

was wondering why i was sinking into the bridge when i walked across now...guessing hit box posistion needs retweaked...though i should try rebuilding bridge first... would hate to remove this mod as i LOVE the bridge for docking bays....

I see some comments about airtightness, so Im just asking, was the airtightness fixed and are they airtight now?

Yes have to rebuilt a new release with hitbox, as stated previously the current hitbox model is ok but position is wrong inside box / reverted to center

The hit boxes are broken, instead of being where the glass panel is, its shifted half a block up.

Those little updates everyday, had to make a new map, mod works fine.

same, totes broken

yes, and its not really air tight anymore and i fall through, so in the mean time ill use the force field walls https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=420351819 on top or underneath just so i can keep using this mod in survival.

Mod appears to be broken along with other extending thing like the retractable stairs mod, visually it's fine but the hitboxes are bugged :( Guess it's an incompatability with the current version of SE. anyone else getting this?

This is the best mod ever, I'd love to have one that has Solar Panels 1 to 20 panel long retractable solar panel would solve all my problems and be a bridge too maybe even gravity plated as well and shielded....i wish i could mod i have sooo many cool idea's.

@MMaster Hey! Awesome mod! but there is one thing that is bugging me, its that there is a small bit missing on the sides. If you make a square of them going upwards you will see what i mean. Im trying to make a parking space that surrounds the ship but its a bit annoying that its airtight and you can see the sides open. Anyways if you have time see if you can make a wider one. Thanks!

@FifthPegasus, Soviet Penguin, CooperDankbert
The ModAPI does not yet support having a single block with functions of two blocks, but I think it's possible to make it generate energy when it is extended, like that Treadmill mod from Eikester generates power when it's used.

I like the idea of a solar panel version.

A retractable solar panel mod would be soooo great

Would it be possible to make them solar panels??

could we get a steel version

Any chance of a clean glass version?
