Answered: 3DO - Colour ID, Normal and AO Maps not appearing on model.

LewisBlytheArt

Hi there, I'm new to here but I have an issue which I really need resolved.

When I create my base in DDO, everything is fine, I bring in my OBJ file for the mesh, my Colour ID, Normal and AO maps all in .tga format and the process works. If I then bring it into 3DO, I can see my mesh, but there are no maps applied to it so I have no detail. If I press 'C' to view my colour ID map the mesh appears plain black. I've looked everywhere for a solution but have found nothing. I would appreciate any help as I have a very very fast approaching deadline for this project.

Thanks

Has a solution to this issue been found yet? I'm experiencing the same thing.

I have this same problem if I use NDO on an already-open file without running it through the photonormal presets. Using a photonormal preset properly links the file with 3DO. I think it has to do with the naming of the file - 3DO will look for a file open in Photoshop with a specific name, which is why it might never find the one you have open; assuming your files are named differently. Still, this is a problem that didn't exist in the previous version of NDO and 3DO and should be fixed.
