NadeoImporter [update 2019/10/09]

EDIT: It seems my issue can be fixed by changing the object scale in the .fbx export settings (Blender). If you have an invisible object, and the gbx import has no errors, try scaling up the object when exporting as .fbx.

Pertaining to the "invisible" blocks, I may have found a potential issue: My item was scales 32,32,~7 in Blender, however somewhere in the mix it got shrunk down very small, and this could answer some questions about that. cloud.steampowered.com/...1024x640.resizedimage

I don't understand how you add bones and name all the parts in my 3D software.
A tutorial maybe?
I know there are tutorials on youtube but I meant one specific to shootmania model importing

How you add bones will be dependent on the 3D software you use, and to get help you will need to mention that. And for general rigging the Youtube tutorials will cover a lot of ground.
For blender this is an awesome tut: Intro to Rigging
I have never used 3dsMax, but you might start here: Google: rigging in 3ds max

For SM specifics, look at the importer samples in the zip file in the original post - these will be really helpful. There are even .fbx and .blend files for a sample skin so you can explore the naming conventions and layout of bones. In fact, I would recommend copying the bones from the sample file for your 3D package into your skin and map them accordingly.

Thank you, seems working if I UPscale it a lot

Yep, you have to scale it 100 (in the exporter settings)
(for some reason fbx is in centimeters by default, and the blender exporter doesn't fill in the unit scale)



And, for the record, about this Sintel character:

Thanks, I was going with 64 because a multiple of 2 made sense, but the scale didn't seem quite right. At least I was on the right track.

Nice use of the Blender movie asset.

Any chance some of the Trackmania track blocks (not just scenery) may be offered in the sample pack in the future so we may have geometry data to make compatible blocks? And perhaps a carskin too, since there is a playerskin available now? (I know there are a couple of these around, but an official sample model would be nice)

Ok, i'm realy blocking on something that will seems stupid but...
How to use the pre-existing materials ? Till there i was using custom textures but i want to try this way to work too and can't get it working...

I checked the material library with "NadeoImporter.exe MeshStatic /MaterialList" and picked "WoodPath".
So i did my object in blender and instead of calling my material "_TDSN_WoodPath_Wood" I nammed it "WoodPath"

But this is what I have in the importer:

Code: Select all

NadeoImporter 2013-05-13_10_09
Failed to generate mesh for ":user:\Work\Items\Stair_wood.fbx":
Material not found in library : WoodPath

I read and re-read the 1st page, i can't see what i'm doing wrong so i guess i'm misunderstanding something but what ...

Do i still have to provide the textures as i did for custom materials ?

[meuh21]

I can't find WoodPath in the materials list but my list is from the old nadeoimporter. You can try WoodBridge

[Harrison_rus]

What is it "BaseMaterial"? I tried named uv layer "material" in "BaseMatirial" but not working!

Code: Select all

Mandatory uv layer not found: BaseMaterial

[Fix]

WoodBridge no longer exist (since beta 3 i think), we packed it with WoodPathDetails in a unique material : WoodDetails. WoodPath still exist.

[ScavangeR]

Sooo ...

It still exist but the importer wont found it,great.
I'm still sure i'm doing something wrong but can't figure what

My title is now up to 300Mo and i wont release something that heavy... Especially when I see the stunter pack under 8Mo

Using the embed materials would be a great way to pull it to something as thin as possible.

Code: Select all

Error: joint "RightClav" not found on skel "Player" For joint group "AimMove"

What does this mean?
