Converting from Penumbra problem - i3670 - 12-08-2012

I have 2 problems.

1. I'm trying to convert the metal bed but the material isn't right. If I select soliddiffuse the material is correct but the look of model is flawed. It's solid. However if I switch to translucent the model is correct but the material is seethrough, kinda looks like a ghost bed.

2. Trying to convert the security camera but when I try to import the mesh it crashes.



P.S. I saw that xtron has made a package of penumbra models but the download links aren't working. Do you know where I may retreive a copy?

Weird thing... is that the Penumbra material? If so, then make a new one from the material editor. That's all I can do, sorry Sad

Ye, I just convert it.

Any idea for the security cam?


RE: Converting from Penumbra problem - The chaser - 12-08-2012

About the cam... If it has animations or something like that It will surely crash. I will inspect the models by myself so I can help better.

Open the bed's material in the Material Editor and set it to Soliddiffuse, blend type to Alpha. Make sure to CHECK the Alpha at the bottom and find the diffuse image. It has an alpha channel in it that will give you what you're looking for. Save and check the bed.

That did it. However whilst continuing to convert models I came across storagedoor and I've been struggling to make it work like a door. Been messing around with joints and bodies but can't figure it out. Same goes for the madrass.

Thanks by the way. Smile
