Hello,
can i make an objekt with 2 materials?
I would like too make an obkekt like this:

and the inporter say alwals: not enough UvLayers for material (1 < 2)
i have two layers in the model:
1)LightMap
2)Material
Material = StadiumGrass

I´m using a little different UV names:
1) BaseMaterial
2) Lightmap

make sure you set the right material name with the physical id at the last

_TDSN_ItemName_PhysicalID
(_D _S _N textures needed here, non stock textures)

or stock textures just use

MaterialName

But stock textures probably don´t work in the common library (watch at the fbx import with the nadeo importer that you set the right environment), should work this way

Yes... I've used multi material on my kits...

In 3DSMax you just have to select your poly and apply the material on it...

But your Item should only have 2 UVs Layers (Basematerial and Lightmap)

ah ok,
i make a probe with "BaseMaterial" and "LightMap"
must i conroll of the Big and small letters? (A/a)

sorry but error: not enoge layer^^
i used the newerst blender

Read this: http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... s.#p195595

I have found my misstake:
It was the Object-name:
my name was only "_Lod0" but it must be "{Name}_Lod0"

thank you very much^^

As the Importer is not written for coders it would be a nice improvement if the error messages go more into details. In this example: "the Lightmap layer is missing." would be easier to understand.

@Nadeo: is TDSNI for static Meshes already on the ToDo list? TIA for any infos

Hello Community,
i have a problem to open the normal dds files (*N.dds)
my paint.net editor can't read this file, but it can read the other .dds files...

need hlep...

edit: i have found a viewer to convert it #öpö:
https://developer.nvidia.com/legacy-texture-toolsWindows Texture Viewer

Gimp works well with a his dds plugin (or with dxtbmp for dds with alpha channel). And Gimp is free and seems to have much more possibilities

Compressonator read, edit and save _N.dds,

as originally suggested here.
It does batch conversions too.
