TGEA SetSkinName Problem

#1 If my memory serves me, the problem comes in the periods in the names. It won't auto-create the material, so you'll have to do one for each. I think changing the material name fixed it.

So instead of

new material ("female.head")

it would be

new material ("female_head")

It's been a while since I've dealt with this. If that doesn't work, you might try adding a "mapto ="female.head";
to the material definition.

#2 Ariel it is currently broken in TGEA. Now you could wait until Torque Juggernaut is released in the pretty near future and is supposed to have the fixes, or you could use these resources that fix it.

#3 Thanks for all the help, adding the new material thing on the material.cs plus
some modification on the reskin function works.
Now I am trying to port the setSpecificSkin/skinModifiers examples to TGEA.

@Ron , yes I am waiting for the Torque Juggernaut/T2 however i doubt that it
includes all those that I want in an mmorpg functionality like these specific skinnings,
hiding nodes, morphings, etc.

#4 Hey guys,

I'm in the process of porting to TGEA at the moment, since my character cuztomization is dependant on the dynamic skin and mesh hiding resources from TGE I will be taking a look at this issue soon. Not promising anything but I'll post my findings when I've had a chance to dig in. Give me a week or two, works hectic at the moment. ;)

#5 @Gareth.. yes please it would be great if you could post a resource on
converting to TGEA that setSpecificSkin/skinModifiers codes.

#6 If/When I get it working I'll post up a step-by-step resource. ;)

#7 Hi Ariel.

I have got Dynamic Skins working in TGEA:
