Creating Walls

Software used:

• Bob's Track Builder
• Zmodeler

Tools used:

• mod2quadnoz.exe

In Bob's Track builder you create a wall (you can create a single panel, just make sure it's vertical). Export to .dof, import to Zmodeler to export to .mod. Open mod2quadnoz.exeand select your mod. Choose the height threshold for your object.

Height Chart:

Bottom	Top	Type
0	1	Guard Rails
0	2	Small Billboards
0	4	Big Billboards
0	8	Start Line Banner Posts
0	10	1 Story Buildings

It will generate a mod-noz.txt file that you copy into the foolandsurface.txt

example mod-noz.txt

  object(wall.tga,1,0)
    vert(115.4991, 89.2535, -1.7823)
    vert(115.4991, 89.2535, 35.2177)
    vert(96.8069, 75.3720, 9.1250)
    vert(96.8069, 75.3720, -27.8750)
    quad(0,1,2,3)
  end
  object(wall.tga,1,0)
    vert(91.3170, 114.0628, -1.7257)
    vert(91.3170, 114.0628, 35.2743)
    vert(115.4987, 89.2535, 13.2315)
    vert(115.4987, 89.2535, -23.7685)
    quad(0,1,2,3)
  end

example foolandsurface.txt integration:

begin
  modobject(road.mod, 0, 0, 0, 0)
  modobject(water.mod, 0, 0, 14, 0)

  object(wall.tga,1,0)
    vert(115.4991, 89.2535, -1.7823)
    vert(115.4991, 89.2535, 35.2177)
    vert(96.8069, 75.3720, 9.1250)
    vert(96.8069, 75.3720, -27.8750)
    quad(0,1,2,3)
  end
  object(wall.tga,1,0)
    vert(91.3170, 114.0628, -1.7257)
    vert(91.3170, 114.0628, 35.2743)
    vert(115.4987, 89.2535, 13.2315)
    vert(115.4987, 89.2535, -23.7685)
    quad(0,1,2,3)
  end

The other integration is in foolandgraphics.txt:

begin
  modobject(road.mod, 0, 0, 0, 0)
  modobject(water.mod, 0, 0, 14, 0)
  modobject(wall.mod, 3, 0, 0, 0)
