CA Oz's Caliban has given the modding community a little early Chrismas present in the form of CA's own .cas exporter.

Download it here.

Just so everyone's clear:

- in RTW .cas files are used for models and animations in RTW
- in M2TW .cas files are used for battle map/strat map animations and strat map models (not the battle map models)
- this is an exporter only, use Vercingetorix's importer to get TW assets into 3DSmax

Just to recap:
- in M2TW .cas files are used for battle map/strat map animations and strat map models (not the battle map models)

And again:
- in M2TW .cas files are used for battle map/strat map animations and strat map models (not the battle map models) - there is no way to access M2TW battlemap models at this time

What was that ER? .CAS files are used for battlemap models in MTW2?

Awesome news. Lets hope CA keeps this up.

Thanks CA!

I'm having trouble with Verc exporter, so I'm just about to try it.

Didn't work, it rejected it on the basis that it was not made for this version. I'm pretty sure I used the right one, about to try again...

Ok, I have tried both the animation and model exporters and followed the provided screenshot for exporting options and none of them works.

Using animations exported with this tool result in CTD during game loading (at opening splash image).

Using the model exporter resulted in this:

Note than I'm using RTW/BI models imported with Verc's tool and re-exporting with the CA tool.
