I just use mesh.ascii for everything.

I have one in a similar vein.... I've imported .obj objects but apparently I don't know how to correctly create a UV Wrap / Material / Texture from scratch...

Every time I attempt to export to mesh.ascii I get "Skipping texture 'xyz' (No UV Mapping)

I go the Texture editor, create a new texture, load the correct .tga file and check the UV / Image editor & select the correct image. In Blender everything looks correct... overlooked setting?

Do this for every material used

Killer!

I figured it was something simple that I didn't know how to do. Thanks

Your Welcome ;D

I actually exported it as .mesh.ascii at first... but yeah, when I loaded it in XNALara all the objects came into the same place as in original O_o

Thanks Daz, gonna try that!

EDIT: It was already set like that! D:

EDIT2: Okay, I found the problem. Everything was renamed right... except the materials! Loading the enviroment back in Max I noticed the submaterials shared the same name (such as "material 0", like many UE static meshes) and for this reason they continued to show the same texture.

That's weird! I only use mesh.ascii because I don't have a clue about how to work with .obj

Good to hear that the problem got solved!

[Runa]

I was quite surprise too! Usually I port enviroments as .obj files because when they are heavy the exportation in mesh.ascii tends to be infinite XD but if they are pretty small like this one I have no problems. The only issue I got this time was that the objects automatically went back to their original position... so the furnishes appeared like a crappy pile

Random question: what do you guys use to bake missing normal maps? Crazybump expired and the reg key crack is not working for me, same for Run As Date. I have the Nvidia DDS plugin for Photoshop, which I often use for hair and minor things. But for bodies... meh, I need a very decent normal map and I don't know how to create it :\

Crofty made a really good tutorial on that over TRF, but basically you need Blender.

If you don't find it, I will write the instructions here.

Plus, there exist Trail Resetters for CrazyBump

The trial reset is that reg key I mentioned that doesn't work tried many times, but it keeps telling me to buy a license.

And lol yeah... if someone could kindly write me a quick tutorial would be great... because TRF has so many threads and I don't think it's gonna be an easy hunt...
