Collada texture issue

by Thomas Pac · in Torque 3D Beginner · 07/16/2013 (11:33 am) · 9 replies

So I have a stadium model that I have with about a hundred different textures on the model. I exported it from blender and put in Torque 3D successfully. I placed the textures on the model via the the Material editor and saved the mission. I went back later and the textures were gone, so I replaced them and saved it, but everytime I go back into Torque, the textures don't show and the "No Textures" texture is printed all over the stadium. Does anyone how to fix this?

    Make sure that you actually save each material (within the materials editor) after making changes. There's a little diskette icon there that needs to be clicked after each and every material change. Saving the mission doesn't save the materials.

    Hmmm... You could try deleting the .dso files by using the deleteDSOs.bat within your project's directory. My Projects/<your project name> and see if that does it.

    What version are you running ? Check your materials.cs file to see if there is a random stray ; or a broken entry in the list of materials, anything after that wont load properly next time torques launched.

    What's the image format you have for those textures? Torque really likes .png, .jpg, .dds and .tga but it really doesn't like .tif in my experience. And I seem to recall it not liking .bmp either. I almost always end up converting my textures to .png (though that's probably a bad habit in itself).

    I got about a hundred .jpg's and about 5 or 6 .png's
