The tangent space in Blender is the same one that xNormal uses and actually has some pretty significant advantages over the tangent spaces in Maya and Max, which you can read about here. So there is noting wrong with Blenders baking in that regard ;) All in all, Blenders baking is pretty good in terms of workflow, it's…
Alright, So I was putting this computer together for a friend this weekend. AMD Athlon 64 4000+ 1 gig of Corsair XMS RAM ASRock Dual SATA2 Mobo Socket 939 EVGA 7800GT PCI-E SATA2 3.0gb/s Seagate HD Well, everything hardware works... I think. When I tried to install Windows (yeah i know ) it tried it, then said there was an…

Many of these errors will not be evident once you apply the full material to your models, including color and roughness and occlusion etc. It's easy to drill down and get hung up on details. But it's important to pull back and try to see the larger picture. Many of these errors will become much less important once the full…

Currently the plugin is heavily based on a work around for the Substance painter Python APIs, I hope that in future versions of painter I…

So i left it on and came to work. I hope that its…
Have you tried saving your mesh as FBX, COLLADA or ASE (see ASE instructions here)? Those formats should support vertex colors. EDIT: Just did a test (since I never did this before :poly136:) FBX - Appeared to import fine into xNormal however attempting to bake to a low poly FBX gave a error saying there were no Texture UV…
As gannonroader said something is overheating, but I have a feeling it's power that is missing. If the PC overheats it usually shuts down completely. You mentioned that it reboots but also mentioned that it shuts down. Does it do both? or a reboot? If it reboots, then it sounds to me that you don't have enough power from…
