All I do to fix the problem is to open my .kn5 in 3dsimed and export as trackname-temp.fbx. When you import this new .fbx in to ksEditor you are able to click on the AI spline correctly. I assume there is some kind of axis issue when exporting from 3ds max or blender that 3dsimed doesn't have.
I had been crazy for a week trying different things!! and now in 5 min it's fixed! It's been easier than I thought!! hehe thank you very much luchian and Fat-Alfie!!!
Delete the one that’s there and start the game, AC will recreate one based on your AI line automatically
I have but I've running through content manager I deleted the map and didn't have an outline to begin with at all so I'll try launching the actual game.
I need some help please! I've started looking out for optimization and performance, and I'm experimenting with texture baking in 3ds Max. So far everything works and I succesfully created my baked texture, I do an extra unwrap UV to be sure, export and test it in ks editor. The uv map is totally messed up. Ok so I get back to Max, check the uv map, all is well, change map channel, export and nothing changed, still same result. I check the file in 3dsimed and it's got the same messed up map as kseditor. If I change the UV map in Max I can see the actual edits in ks editor, problem is not in Max, it keeps the correct map no matter if I box or sphere or plane the UV. Have you got any idea what I could be doing wrong? I'm searching the web but I can't find similar problems yet.
I change map channel when unwrapping UVs, going always to channel 2, and when exporting the fbx that will become the only channel wich AC will read from. I've been doing this for months and I never had this problem, but I've never used baked texture too. I think it has something to do with the render to texture settings, I'll start from scratch and see if I can point out my mistake.
these are my settings, I thought about the wrong channel but if I select 1 then only the big board texture gets taken into consideration and it bake only that one everywhere.
Ok, looking at your settings, you are not actually baking AO... You have to choose an Ambient Occlusion element/renderer, see my settings:
ok, I did that now and I get this error. Some materials are taken into consideration and some are not. They're all standard only diffuse materials, should they be something else? Edit: forgot, I'm selecting channel 2 cause my map is stored in that channel, I'll move everything back to 1 if that could be causing issue but since I'm still a step before the ksEditor I'll wait to do that till I find a working method.
hi all i made a spireal ramp n my cars just go strate throw it could anyone explain i used blender to edit the size then 3d sim to import now i just go throw it no solid is the only thing but idk ,,, anyone
I used the blender particle system to add some trees to my track (800 trees, one material). I'm getting graphical artifacts in sdk and in game and some trees are missing? Is this a gpu issue or sdk issue? I have not had any issues in any other games with this gtx970. I remember reading somewhere on this board that some updated unofficial sdk exists but I can't find the posts anymore. All in all I have 410k tris including the non visible road mesh at this point. The artifacts are essentially just really long polygons going across the track from tree to tree. If I open the fbx in blender it opens fine with no issues. In sdk and in game I get artifacts. edit: I think I figured it out. It seems the kstree shader or kstree_group can't handle non-uniform meshes. I had made y trees but they were not symmetrical. It seems after I fixed that and made them symmetrical the problem went away. I think.
Not sure that is the cause, maybe others can confirm. However, to avoid a useless post , one version of the modded KS Editor is there. I don't know if there are other/newer versions.
First of all, I am new to Blender so my problem is likely an easy fix. I have been following along with the YouTube tutorial and I can't get any textures in. The plane stays black, yet I can click on the center for the road and it will have the correct material (same for the grass on the edges). Hoping someone can identify my issue here.
Try materials mode instead of textures mode? Select normals are pointing upwards. You also have uvmap?
No changes made when using material or texture mode. I recorded a quick video to show my issue better.
Are you using nodes? Mayeb try switching to cycles instead of internal blender render. If you want you could upload the blend and people could take a look. You don't even need to upload the full track. Just one strip of faces going across the track would be enough. What tutorial are using?
This is the tutorial I am using Download the .blend here As I am still new to Blender, I find myself trying to do exactly as the tutorial states. I'll use some nodes and update. UPDATE: Switching to cycles and using nodes allowed me to laydown my textures!
