SOLVED: Changing Mesh in 3DO makes object chrome with DDO

emesjay

As title says, the whole object changes into a chrome material... If i change back to the original mesh, all my materials are fine.

Also noticed when the mesh is chrome, when hitting the keypad to preview the individual maps, they are all blank and missing.

Running Quixel Suite 1.6 Version.

I can not even replace the mesh when I click the reimporter (only maps). Not sure this is a bug. Would be good to be able to replace corrected mesh as a hot load. Using Suite 1.6.

Thanks emesjay,

This issue is likely because the group name of your mesh has changed when re-exporting the mesh. DDO relies on mesh group names to know to which parts certain materials are to be applied, and if the group name changes mid-project it will no longer know how to associate the mesh and material. Make sure the group name stays the same and you should be all good!
