Hi,

I've imported your 3ds file into ZGE and there seems to be a UV problem.

Make sure to collapse your stack before exporting so that any Rendermap Generator data is baked into your mesh.

*I'm no 3DMax user so I cannot inspect your .max file.

Good luck,
Kjell

Thanks for helping, Kjell.

I don't have Max either. I tried importing the 3ds into another program and the texture looked weird there too. Nikkk, can you provide a screen shot of how the model appears in Max?

btw, the real texture size is 3072x3072.can you implement to use this size to import as a texture?

Hi nikkk,

The UV map in your new 3ds file seems to be identical to the old one.

As you can see the majority of faces are overlapping each other, which can't be right. Could you please post a screenshot of the UV Map in 3DMax ( Edit UVW )?

*By the way, switch your 3DMax viewport driver to OpenGL ( instead of Direct3D ) for a more accurate preview of your scenes.

Hi nikkk,

As mentioned before, there is no CollisionStyle:Mesh or anything similar at the moment, so you need to come up with a alternative. The easiest is to recreate your environment with Models that make use of Box3D / Rect2D_OBB CollisionStyles. It does get quite tedious when you have complex environments though. The other option is to export your 3d polygon data to a text format and write the according collision checking procedure yourself. However, due to ZGE not supporting arrays and communication between objects this takes quite some creative scripting.

Also, since ZGE currently lacks any kind of Raycasting possibilities, determining distances to intersection points is not easy either. Which means that slopes will make your life a whole lot more difficult ( like the exit of your garage ).

I suggest you take a look at Ville's FPS example provided with ZGE.

Kind Regards,
K
