If we increase that, allow for SpaceBase?

What file did you get that from?

I have a diff value though:
<Property name="MaxRadiusForSpaceBases" value="400" />

fun fact

#

#

if you spawn buildings on non-atmospheric worlds they won't have NPCs

fallow meadow Apr 12, 2021, 6:41 PM

#

Awww, poor NPCs

#

Either way, you were right that MaxRadiusForSpaceBases used to be a diff value for that matter

waxen cedar Apr 12, 2021, 6:42 PM

#

so they changed it now with the experimental?

#

weird stuffs

#

mm, space bases on their way this year >.>

fallow meadow Apr 12, 2021, 6:43 PM

#

I don't have all the versions unpacked, so not sure when exactly that changed

#

It appears I was just on the first release for 3.3 where it was still 400

waxen cedar Apr 12, 2021, 6:44 PM

#

well what matters is that they have touched space bases recently

#

that gives me hope

hearty wasp Apr 12, 2021, 6:44 PM

waxen cedar if you spawn buildings on non-atmospheric worlds they won't have NPCs

that's just a switch in spawn table

#

fallow meadow Apr 12, 2021, 6:45 PM

#

Somewhat, or it's just weird naming as per usual. Maybe they consider the Anomaly and the Space Station all to be Space Bases?

waxen cedar Apr 12, 2021, 6:47 PM

#

yeh

fallow meadow Apr 12, 2021, 6:56 PM

#

Exited Steam to ensure unpacking 3.36 is going to finish without issue

#

Usually exp. will be up around 30mins to 1hr after internal

#

Might even be a public one with some additional changes?

waxen cedar Apr 12, 2021, 7:00 PM

#

OverrideRadius appears to be the flattening area

#

I decreased it a bit and now some building parts get constantly generated inside terrain

fallow meadow Apr 12, 2021, 7:12 PM

It makes sense, although I would have expected to see some other structures have it too then, like the Portal for example

Max radius for space bases was added in 3.0

They changed a single MaxRadiusForBases to two variables: PlanetBases and SpaceBases, which is why I've been predicting space bases sometime relatively soon

https://www.reddit.com/r/NoMansSkyTheGame/comments/mlqvdm/how_to_save_edit_to_get_a_completed_expedition_in/
Closest I can think of, shows part of the save required to have all missions completed, but yet to claim all the rewards in-game. Changing the "RewardCollected" values to 511 if I recall correctly, basically collects all main Phase rewards. When I say claim and collect here, I mean doing so within the Expeditions game. Redeeming rewards is done on any save in the Anomaly at the QS bot

#

Following the Reddit post basically results in a finished Expeditions save

do you use any "automated" methods, like how I use excel to mathematically assemble correlated colors and manage balancing?

Yeah I saw in your files how you configured the biomes and actually used that method in my own mod project that i never finished or released

#

It was temporarily the method I used for grassfix to try to make it more compatible with other modders biome mods but nobody seemed interested in taking the extra step to play into that so

odd crater Apr 13, 2021, 7:31 AM

Well, maybe I should take a look at your color MODS before doing anything. I don't know how any of it works yet.

hushed bronze Apr 13, 2021, 7:34 AM

#

Did you leave your grass settings within larger biomes or did you extract them into grass-only independent files ?

#

TBH my color mods don't use any of my newer techniques either yet and spring break is coming

#

I have some complicated excel sheets i use for colors now that I would be willing to share though

odd crater Apr 13, 2021, 7:35 AM

hearty wasp Apr 13, 2021, 10:17 PM

#

the warp is just a scene

#

but since the tunnel's using an additive mat

#

and if you've previously used image editing software

#

you'll basically see the tunnel in screen blending mode

#

you can take a look in the mod testing channel in the modding discord

#

I've got a meme Ever Given mod put up there that adds a freighter into the tunnel

and it's barely visible

you'd prolly need to change the mat mode of the tunnels

slate veldt Is it possible to extract a base from an Expedition save and transfer it over to...

Certainly possible, and actually not all that hard once you know how to do it. Even easier considering this is one of your own bases and I assume you wish to stick with the same exact location/position.

One thing to keep in mind though, is to delete the current base, especially if uploaded, but only after having made a copy of the required data (save) of course.

If you wish I can guide you through. Likely easiest to do in DM. Let me know and I will shoot you an invite

hearty wasp Apr 14, 2021, 3:19 PM

just use NMSSE

#

you can literally export your base into a standalone file and import it to any other save

#

it's absolutely fucking magic I love it so much

slate veldt Apr 14, 2021, 3:21 PM

#

Yes, I assume it needed NMSSE, i need to check if i have the updated version though

fallow meadow Apr 14, 2021, 3:21 PM

#

Yes, sure it's magic, but import/export keeps the original base, which is going to give issues if not taken care of

#

I personally like to avoid duplicate bases, especially with Expeditions being weird already and basically generating bases in 'normal' mode

hearty wasp Apr 14, 2021, 3:23 PM

Can anyone tell me what the actual hell is broken about this? I farmed for hours until I finally got the model I wanted and farmed until I got the S-Class, now this randomly changes back to my old freighter's model and even randomly changes secondary color which I can't change to any other color. Is it possible to fix this by save editing or back to farming?

hearty wasp Apr 14, 2021, 11:07 PM

#

sounds like a vanilla bug to me

#

long lasting one, in fact

#

p sure the colour thing is years old

dense rover Apr 14, 2021, 11:08 PM

#

And is there anything I can do about it?

#

What does the 'Generate' actually generate?

hearty wasp Apr 14, 2021, 11:10 PM

#

random freighter seed

#

as for things to do about it better ask at #nms-questions since the bug report channel seem to have disappeared

dense rover Apr 14, 2021, 11:13 PM

#

Which seed is causing the error? Can I just maybe change the seed up?

#

Also, I think that channel won't be of much help since my options are to save edit or farm for it again

hearty wasp Apr 14, 2021, 11:18 PM

#

I think it may have something to do with old freighter in the past

#

but since yours is prolly a "new" gen freighter I think it's just the game being weird

#

you can prolly just try to change seeds a few more times if you'd like

dense rover Apr 14, 2021, 11:20 PM

hearty wasp you can prolly just try to change seeds a few more times if you'd like

I've tried that a couple of times now, the black secondary color just doesn't change and I'm pretty sure the model is going to break the moment I go into MP

probably not for the already-fucked freighter, but it's a good idea if you intend to re-farm another one

@dense rover If you have a black (or really dark green) secondary color, that's actually an absence of color and there's no way to change it unless you change the seed values. What was the original appearance and we can try to emulate that?

does anyone have a link to a tutorial about how to interpret base "position" and "forward" in the json

vale iron Apr 17, 2021, 1:37 AM

#

I don't know if there is one, but if it helps, I think the base computer is positioned relative to an absolute point in the system that has a particular facing. All the other base parts are then positioned relative to the base computer and its facing.

stark plover Apr 17, 2021, 1:42 AM

#

nah once the base origin is set you can move the base computer anywhere in blender without changing the base origin and its build radius

fallow meadow Apr 17, 2021, 1:43 AM

#

A base gets a Galactic Address, a position and 'forward' vector, Then the Base Computer is more or less at 0,0,0, with Up and At vectors. And indeed, all other parts relative to the Base Computer. The vectors are normalised and used for orientation

stark plover Apr 17, 2021, 1:43 AM

#

is the origin changed when you do the save editor swap to signal booster?

fallow meadow Apr 17, 2021, 1:44 AM

#

In Blender other things happen. Moving a Base Computer in Blender is not the same as doing so in-game

#

Yes, origins and relative positioning changes when you do so

#

You'd have to understand 3D Vector math to fully understand and work with doing such calculations manually

I feel like we need another channel for save editor

lean saffron Apr 18, 2021, 1:33 AM

#

Is there a mod that shows actual distance for waypoints that are far away?

hushed bronze Apr 18, 2021, 1:59 AM

#

Its actually probably possible

#

@lean saffron Do me a favor and figure out exactly what distance the game starts displaying a timer instead, and I'll see if I can spot the proper setting for it

lean saffron Apr 18, 2021, 2:07 AM

#

Okay, will do next chance I get. Iirc it's either 1000u or 1200u.

hushed bronze Apr 18, 2021, 2:07 AM

#

i need it as exactly as possible. If its 1150, I wont find it by searching 1200

lean saffron Apr 18, 2021, 2:18 AM

#

Hah, apparently it changes to 4:57 as soon as the distance exceeds 1,244u. That's not the number I remember from the last time I checked, but it's what I'm seeing now. (Using a save beacon). @hushed bronze

hushed bronze Apr 18, 2021, 2:18 AM

#

Ill see if the obvious file has any matches for a number close to that

#

i don't see any clear hits in the file I was hoping for, sorry

lean saffron Apr 18, 2021, 2:23 AM

#

No problem, really appreciate the attempt. :)

hushed bronze Apr 18, 2021, 2:24 AM

#

I still feel that, if that value can change, its probably controlled through the UI Globals file, but it looks like it may not be as straightforward as just "switchdistance"="1245" or something

lean saffron Apr 18, 2021, 2:34 AM

#

Right, makes intuitive sense. Oh, and fyi I was on foot, in case that wasn't obvious.

vale iron Apr 18, 2021, 3:00 AM

I know I saw a setting somewhere that looked like that for ships. Something like distancetotime

Golden ships look DAMN FINE when the lighting is strong enough to let it shine 🙂

#

I still don't know why HG decided to just make the lighting too dim

#

The brightest vanilla environment is like a cloudy day

vale iron Apr 18, 2021, 3:52 AM

#

Yeah I've been noticing that when testing ships. I've even added a couple of pointLights just to illuminate the exterior of the ship some

#

Did you turn up the ambient?

steel crypt Apr 18, 2021, 5:25 AM

#

You might look for the number for the time instead of distance when looking for the change. Does that make any sense? Doesn’t sound like it to me lol

hushed bronze Apr 18, 2021, 5:27 AM

@vale iron Its a combination global light power from 3 to 4 in the graphics, and high values on the lightcolor in the sky profiles also

sometimes they even leave in typos just to fuck with you

merry wasp Apr 18, 2021, 3:15 PM

these multipliers are weird to say the least

#

but easy enough to understand

hearty wasp Apr 18, 2021, 3:17 PM

#

at least it's not ran through some other algo

#

the game really just multiply I think

merry wasp Apr 18, 2021, 3:17 PM

#

yup

#

it like default =250 ship multiplier =2 so 1k ship storage

#

well its but more conveluted but :p

#

but that how it works from how i can see from here

merry wasp Apr 18, 2021, 4:36 PM

nah the issue is that nms only scales xyz as a group???? and blender you can scale them individually and it doesn't get along well if you try to make things thinner or whatever

fallow meadow Apr 20, 2021, 10:30 AM

Exactly. You can not scale objects 'per' axis in NMS. So you do not define an axis when you use scaling in Blender (S)

how do you even do it in vanilla

like signal scanner?

I haven't been playing for long, but you mean that i would have to travel to the location, and then use a signal scanner?

I guess there's another mod that i need to have to reach it huh

hearty wasp Apr 20, 2021, 1:07 PM

no I just mean that you may need to look for the derelict location with vanilla methods

cos NMC takes you to the space station right

tawny coral Apr 20, 2021, 1:08 PM

Yup, and then there's a base on the closest planet called 'Pyrite mine & 'S'DFr'

One question. Does the game accept any seed values other than ones in that format? For example if I just gave a ship the seed "POTATO"

#

would it even generate anything

somber lava Apr 20, 2021, 11:26 PM

I'm p sure the seeds are in hexadecimal

Rip. So we can't just have ship seed that constantly changes like we can with name formatting

hearty wasp Apr 20, 2021, 11:28 PM

#

so you either 1. crash 2. have the seed revert to 0x0 3. translated from whatever system the game thinks it is and translate into hexadecimal (pretty sure it's not happening)

#

I mean you can still try

waxen cedar Apr 20, 2021, 11:29 PM

marsh eagle Apr 20, 2021, 11:33 PM

#

hearty wasp so you either 1. crash 2. have the seed revert to 0x0 3. translated from whateve...

That depends. If I say the game actually uses the decimal value of the hex someone else comes and says no but the cpu handles it in binary. It is just common we exchange seeds in hex. The savefile takes hex. The rewardtable only accepts decimal. Sure you can convert any phrase into hex as its just ascii code index. But as we exchange in hex we are limited to these if we want to use true words https://nedbatchelder.com/text/hexwords.html

Hex words

marsh eagle Apr 20, 2021, 11:35 PM

somber lava How would you even go about modding on console?

Well thats the next step, to calculate a system glyph adress where you're choosen ships can appear. So you don't need savegame editing or modding

somber lava Apr 20, 2021, 11:36 PM

I'll keep that in mind

if I have to edit a prop so that it loads first, like a platform under a teleporter, I can just go ahead and change the timestamp on that prop in blender right

Anyone figure out how to affect fog on Prime planets? There seems to be a whole section for prime planet fog, and it seems to do exactly nothing. The regular fog settings dont touch them either

steel crypt Apr 22, 2021, 4:23 AM

#

Anyone notice the colors of the loading screen nebulae are different now? Are they loading from an external palette? Hmmmm

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 4:26 AM

#

I've been seeing more dimmer colours in addition to already existing ones too

#

Rayrod did something with galaxy map back in the day he might know more?

hushed bronze Apr 22, 2021, 4:28 AM

@steel crypt Changes to the nebula colors was mentioned in recent patch notes

supposedly it was a minor shift to help with visually impaired fellas

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:45 AM

#

stark plover if I have to edit a prop so that it loads first, like a platform under a telepor...

No, that's not what timestamps are for

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:46 AM

#

from what I understand watching builder youtubers, while props are ordered alphabetically in blender they are ordered by time ingame and are loaded in that order

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:46 AM

#

Load order is done by the game itself (executable). Not sure if there is any way to control this through modding, but certainly not by save editing

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:48 AM

#

okay how is load order decided by the game

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:49 AM

#

Props are not ordered alphabetically either, in Blender, sure, but not in your save when saved by the game

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:51 AM

#

okay

#

i clearly understand that

#

can you just tell me the answer

#

how can i control my load order

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:53 AM

#

stark plover okay how is load order decided by the game

You'd have to look into modding to see if you can actually make a difference to load order. The game makes sure to load things that are required first, to then load other things less required and so on

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:54 AM

#

which would be

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:55 AM

#

I don't know, because I have never looked into it, nor am I willing to look into it because it is likely hard to figure out. Don't see a need personally

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:57 AM

#

why would you give advice if

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 9:57 AM

#

add pluses to have no priority

#

add tildes to have more priority

#

to the beginning of the file names

#

done

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:57 AM

#

cheersa

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:57 AM

#

We're not talking load order for mods to be added

#

We're talking load order of objects in-game @hearty wasp

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 9:58 AM

#

oh

#

that's basebuildingcosttable

#

just

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 9:58 AM

#

um, based?

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 9:58 AM

#

make everything you want not disappear have the building cost of a decal

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:59 AM

#

Still doesn't quite change load order

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 9:59 AM

#

might be worth a shot

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 9:59 AM

#

That is just 'render cost'

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:00 AM

#

that's because "load order" of said objects are basically based on distance and if they're inside of your FoV

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:00 AM

#

Sure distance can be part of it, but it onvolves a lot more

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:00 AM

#

but if you set to to be always loaded they won't have pop out

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:02 AM

#

Yes, sure I can set an object to not render, but still it gets loaded. And sure you can change LOD to make it render the full LOD as if it is actually close to you, but it doesn't actually make the object closer, therefor not loading it any sooner

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:03 AM

#

yes because it's based on distance to player

#

want it to get loaded

#

get close to it

#

look at it

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:04 AM

#

Anyways, I am pretty sure that it is going to be tough to actually change load order of objects through modding, if even possible, as this is usually part of the actual engine

#

Why would you want to try this to begin with @stark plover ?

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:06 AM

#

yeah so just make it always loaded

#

spoggers

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:06 AM

#

You mean to say, make it always render, which is something quite different

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:06 AM

#

to address people falling through structure props

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:07 AM

#

yeah the loading is pretty sporadic and oftentimes floors and walls will be the last thing to load in

#

great way to get stuck or die

#

it seems to be chronological based on our testing

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:08 AM

#

Reporting the issue is a first step, Another thing is to see if you can troubleshoot your system to get better performance, so it is less likely to happen. Maybe lower some settings?

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:08 AM

#

in that indium system I raid in there are tons of examples of buildings only loading half of the stuctures or technologies in a way that would be consistent with an intelligent design

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:08 AM

#

its not an inherent bug, just how the game loads

#

it loads in order of whats first placed

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:09 AM

#

it might be based on the order in which things are written out in the json

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:09 AM

#

oooh yeah

#

i guess you could go in and change that manually?

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:10 AM

#

Ok, so this is an issue the player has to solve and figure out?

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:10 AM

#

i could isolate floors and edit them in first and then just paste the rest back in after

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:11 AM

#

I get it ... lol

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:11 AM

#

idk why you still think this is some kind of mod

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:11 AM

#

it's a feature

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:11 AM

#

this is vanilla plus

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:12 AM

#

HG made shit not load or popout to reduce performance impacts

#

best case is they cycle in pop in / pop out

#

worst is that they never load or pop out and never come back until reload

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:12 AM

#

yeah case in point, ever scale the holographic galaxy toy up? the outline will load but the actual galaxy graphic doesnt load until youre practically inside it

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:13 AM

#

Scale with Blender or with in-game options?

#

Just trying to make an actual point

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:14 AM

#

blender

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:14 AM

#

There ya go

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:14 AM

#

I mean you can't scale past the LOD point in vanilla anywhere lel

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:15 AM

#

That aside, scaling the object while other things may not scale along, or differently, has some odd results at times.

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 10:15 AM

#

also isn't the toy galaxy only pop up when you're close to it?

#

that's... an entirely different thing to floors not appearing

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:15 AM

#

yeah of course

fallow meadow Apr 22, 2021, 10:16 AM

#

Ever tried scaling the pressure pad? Signal/collision detection becomes larger, while you scale down the object to be smaller. So hey, we have an issue, because we do things we were not meant to do...

stark trellis Apr 22, 2021, 10:17 AM

#

yeah I mean obviously theres a reason you can't scale some items at all let alone infinitely in vanilla so broken stuff is to be expected

stark plover Apr 22, 2021, 10:19 AM

#

this isnt an issue that is relevant to the scaling

#

anyways, the only thing that it really affects is that LOD doesnt pop in until you're too close from the player perspective and that extraneous details, like the LOD highlights on concrete walls, don't clip anyways

#

which is something to be expected

#

and if anything, my scaled builds take less resources to render and less bandwidth overall, because the entire build only appears to be massive but is only about 400 pieces and so on

#

I could lower that number if I wasn't so hard for the triangle shapes

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 1:51 PM

#

I just found out you can format chat text to have no sender name

#

with emotes

#

Azure would you like that?

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 2:35 PM

#

This is only kinda related to modding but, i can't export a model from the game using assimp(fbx collada n stuff).

Im not the coder guy so... yeah, i couldn't even code the thing myself

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 2:36 PM

#

get NMSDK

#

it's a plugin for blender

waxen cedar Apr 22, 2021, 2:40 PM

#

hearty wasp Azure would you like that?

yes

#

still trying to figure out how to apply text delay scrolling

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 2:42 PM

#

but yeah with a custom emote you can just set up a chat message, set disable prefix to true and you can have just any message without your name attached

#

barring censors

waxen cedar Apr 22, 2021, 2:43 PM

#

neato

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 2:49 PM

#

string fields are limited to 32 characters tho

waxen cedar Apr 22, 2021, 2:50 PM

#

you can input longer strings with save editor tho from my understanding. Unless the game just cuts the rest out

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 2:50 PM

#

it's the limit of the struct

waxen cedar Apr 22, 2021, 2:50 PM

#

ah

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 2:50 PM

#

since it uses 0x10 sized strings

pisses me off cos now I can't write new interactions

without modding the language files

may have to go into your appdata for that

And no materials are imported but ig i have to do that0

#

Now back to the original problems

#

No bones

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:44 PM

you in material view?

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:44 PM

#

Yep

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:44 PM

#

tho NMSDK can forget materials sometimes

#

when there's too much to handle

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:44 PM

#

Yh

#

Polo shouldnt be too much

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:45 PM

#

NMS don't use bones

#

we use Joints

basically end points for bones

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:45 PM

Selecting those is hard doe

Hm

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:46 PM

if you want bones you can prolly just

#

make a bone and set moving to snap to veticies

#

rinse and repeat?

#

I haven't touched bones ever

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

Then you dont use blender for literally anything else than nms

#

And the engine for nms

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:47 PM

#

yes

#

I learnt Blender solely for kitbashing for NMS

#

spoggers

#

but yeah you want anything extra you gotta start doing it yourself

#

mesh and textures and NMS related stuff is the best it's gonna do

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:48 PM

#

Im a node editor guy

#

So texturing is the smallest problem im gonna encounter

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:49 PM

#

well since you have both your unpack and compiler

#

you can trace the texture paths pretty easily

#

you're importing polo, yes?

#

you can check the directory of where the scene is

#

there should be a folder with the same name as the scene

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

With material files

#

Yes

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:50 PM

#

decomp the material files

#

open em

#

scroll to bottom

#

texture paths are specified there

#

there is a "MASKS" texture path and its red channel is metalness

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

And you need to channel pack the texture

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

and green channel gloss map

#

oh yeah

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

Also gloss is the opposite of roughness

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

normal's X and Y are flipped

#

yes it's a gloss map

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

So its directx normals

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:52 PM

#

yeah

#

whatever that is

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:53 PM

#

blender intern uses OpenGL normals

#

which have the opposite of DirectX

#

on

#

the

#

uh

#

Z channel

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:54 PM

#

uhh

#

Z's don't exist I don't think

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

X Y Z

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

yeah I mean the textures

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

red green blue

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

they are entirely black

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

normal map

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

so you can just disable that channel

#

if you can

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

hearty wasp they are entirely black

because blender thinks they have 0 alpha

#

or channel pack it

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:55 PM

#

I have zero idea what that means

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:56 PM

#

thats why u have to seperate RGB

#

okay thats not the point

#

but

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:57 PM

#

you mean you have to separate the channels before they'll work?

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:57 PM

#

no its not that

#

channel packing the alpha i ment

#

so no link to the wrong article

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:58 PM

#

so blender thinks it has alpha when it actually doesn't?

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:58 PM

#

it has the wrong alpha information

#

which makes it look black

hearty wasp Apr 22, 2021, 3:59 PM

#

the entire image?

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:59 PM

#

i think its -1 alpha embedded somewherer in the image

safe swan Apr 22, 2021, 3:59 PM

#
