SOLVED: DDO Crashes loading ID Map

agathorn

I am trying out DDO with a VERY simple object, not much more complex than a cylinder.

However DDO consistently crashed every single time I try to load my ID map.

I load in the Triangulated OBJ with no problem. Then I click to load the ID map, select it, and bam! DDO crashes. Every. Single. Time.

I have also placed the entire test project on Dropbox here:

I was having the same problem and the way that I fixed it was to make sure that the ID map had a black background, maybe that will work for you.

Hmm I will give that a try, but I don't think I can control that in Modo so that means a separate action in Photoshop which would be annoying.

Let me try it though.

Hi!

Agathorn make sure your color ID is a flattened png without transparency, that should do the trick!

Peter/Eric thanks for your replies. I took a look this morning and the PNG was indeed on a transparent background. I guess thats just the way Modo spits it out. I went into Photoshop and made the background black and now it loads ok. I'll mess around on the Modo side and see if there is a better way, or maybe just not use PNG.

No worries! Let me know if there is anything else you´re wondering about!
