Character exports with no visible mesh

by Greg Findlay · in Artist Corner · 04/22/2002 (8:52 pm) · 2 replies

Having a little trouble with a character I have on the go. The export process goes through fine except that the player model is not there when viewed in the show tool. I've compare .dmp's with a working character model and there is a complete section missing from my characters export:
Adding skin object from skin "bodymesh" to bone "Bip01 Head" (0).
...
The "adding skin object..." is not present for any bone in the scene. Any ideas on what the cause could be?

I would double check your scene setup with sample files that have been put on the forums by other people (and as shown in the DTS Exporter Documentation). There might be something weird setup in your scene that its not liking.

BTW in the dump file, what does it say under the "third pass"?

Thanks Logan. I got it working properly. It didn't seem to like only having one detail level for some reason since as soon as I applied the multiRes it worked just fine. Wish I would have known that earlier as I spent a lot of time experimenting with the exporter to try and get it to work.
