Problem exporting segmented model

by Derk Adams · in Artist Corner · 04/14/2005 (4:32 pm) · 3 replies

Greetings,

I am trying to export a segmented model using the Torque tutorial Gus player file. I.e. I am just substituting my mesh for the gus mesh but everything else is left alone. I get the following error and don't exactly know what to do about it.

Torque Exporter 0.87 
Using blender, version 235

It appears your mesh has a parenting problem, open up the outliner window and check that ALL of the parent child relationships look right, then look at the material on the mesh and make sure that all of the attributes look right.

Dreamer,

Already did that. Each model part is parented to a specific bone on the single amature. They all connect to a single material and texture file which is just like in the sample file.

To give even more info, I have imported an obj file with UV already assigned for the texture file. The model and texture look fine in blender. The model parts are not closed shapes (it shouldn't matter) and I have turned off double sided texture in the material box.

I would be happy to send my file to someone who is familiar with the process.

Thanks.
