Collision Mesh Only

by Nathan Kent · in Artist Corner · 03/11/2008 (1:53 pm) · 6 replies

Is it possible to export only the collision mesh and not have it be rendered in-game, or how to make the texture on the mesh clear? I'm able to export the collision mesh, but it comes out as a grey box. Any help would be appreciated!

Yes it's possible. I had submitted a resource just this morning doing exactly this.

The resource is still unapproved but it shouldn't hurt to post the link.

I had chosen a different approach to get the collision mesh exported:

Shape
  - Collision
    - Mesh
  - DetailX
    - Bounds

So yes Joseph, better docs for the exporter would be great indeed :)
