Not the one selected. So I'd suggest (duplicating your object then) deleting all the non-useful UV unwraps. If that's not it, do upload a picture so we can see!

I've made a 3D model in Blender 2.71 and connected armature, following the tips provided on the Github page (Oygron-SupCom_Import_Export_Blender)

But when I spawn the unit in-game, no model appears.

What's more, all of the other units on screen freeze (I can select them but can't give them commands), and the game itself doesn't freeze (I can still open menus and quit the game without problems).

Does anyone know where I've gone wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks :D


There's a couple things that could have gone wrong;
-Are the bones of your armature connected to one another? -> They should just be parented, not connected
-Do you have a single "parent" bone or multiple? -> All bone chains should be traceable back to a single parent
-Did you name the single bone parent appropriately? -> Ie in the script if your unit code is defined as "ABC123", that single parent bone needs to have the name ABC123
-The armature itself needs to be named "ABC123_lod0" or "ABC123_lod1"
-Your model, is it correctly attached to your armature? ->Ie all vertices are part of a bone group
-Make sure your model is entirely made of triangle faces, and that the normals of all the faces are pointed the right way


Hi Dudekahedron,

Thanks for your response, I had left off the _lod0 in the armature name. The model now appears in-game, but the textures do not fit properly.

The textures fit correctly in Blender and I exported a UV map for the texture (which I converted to a dds file in gimp) and renamed _Albedo.dds but don't where I'm going wrong.

Thanks again,
