Please dont laugh about the bad quality and my bad English . I hope that with this tutorial I can help people get started with importing objects.

I'm sure that there are better ways to import the models and that I dont fully understand everything so let me know if you have any suggestions and tips. But this worked for me!

Your video is great explained

Only one thing : When you're naming your object with the _Lod0 and _Lod1 thing, I just wanted to say that you can call your object whatever that you want and only create one. The Lod thing is for when you want 2 different Levels Of Details. I tested it with one object and without _Lod0 in my name and it works.

That's all I found that could be change

By the way, could you help me please with my question that I posted higher ? When I create an object in 3ds, my object is on the right side, but in Tm2, my object is on the wrong side. Also, I tried to reset xform and it didn't help.

Thank you.


Edit : I just wanted to say that the command :

Code: Select all

NadeoImporter.exe object /MaterialList > d:\ObjectImportMaterialList.txt

isn't working. It creates the file but it's empty.
