Converting problems, help needed :)
on: October 26, 2009, 04:44:13 pm
Hi guys, I need some help with a model I'm converting, the problem is with a part of the model, a debris part, the texture is fine in one part, and is tiling horribly on the caps, but the UV's in 3ds max are fine, and the model in game works fine as well... I can't seem to fix it no matter what I try to do...
this is what im talking about:

and, as you can see here, the UV's are fine in max...

So it appears correct in 3ds max? Looking at you're map, I see the side of the cylinder and only one cap. Could the other cap just be really big, so that it tiles? Or are the caps stacked?

the caps are stacked... the problem is present on the other parts of the debris as well...

isn't the 3ds tiling factor (in the map option) set to a negative value for this part of the model?
$Formula: ( every-time
   ( has-time-elapsed "0" )
   ( Do-Nothing
   )
   ( send-message
      "#Dalek"
      "High"
      "Pro-crasti-nate"
   )

If you don't solve it, I can have a look at the dae later this evening if you want.

Feel free to have a look at it, the problem is still unsolved... I moved to the max exporter I'll try exporting it that way...

water I put a DAE debris part on the FTP
I tried exporting it using the max converter, and the problem is gone, the UV's are fine that way... but using that exporter dosn't give solid models, as the exported model had many holes and geometry errors...

Blender is showing no uv mapping. A text search of the dae shows there are two mesh-map-channels, 1 & 2. Try having just one uv channel to see if that helps.

On this particular dae pcs2 is finding the model but not the uv's.

well its using only 1 map channel, as you can see in the picture the  tiling part is basically tiling the same texture as on the rest of the hull...
