New and in need of help

by Jhairiean White · in Constructor · 05/15/2009 (4:49 pm) · 4 replies

I have been using Constructor for about 3 days. I'm still new and I am having a problem. I have fixed the main ones from before but now it won't export as a dif at all. It does the steps, I name the file and hit save, then nothing happens. What am I to do? And when I do Map2dif, the building goes pitch black in Torque. So I did Legacy Dif and it worked but walls on the inside were transparent and were walkthrough... I downloaded the path to make it 1.05.1. Help please

The pitch black is what it's supposed to do. Just relight the scene.
As for Constructor's "export as dif", did you see any errors in the console?

Are there any red-lines in your scene? Even with Constructor being patched, bad geometry can still cause missing faces and faulty collisions.

You really should be using the "Export To DIF" option... and it should give you some sort of message if it's not working.

The pitch black would occur only after I relight the scene. I didn't check the console. And I can't even do Export to Dif. It won't save it.

@jhairiean:

Do you get any error messages in the console when you export?
