Not really, the primitive objects are all plugins so are self contained and don't have global properties. You could in theory write a script that applies the vert colour on object creation but youd probably end up having to write so many exceptions in it'd be huge. You probably won't be able to directly copy vert color…
Thanks for the assistance guys. Sajeet I knocked around with the game exporter but it doesnt seem to have any additional functional than the standard FBX exporter. @Swan thanks for your script. It seems really good but I'm not sure it will suit my needs as the main functionality I need is Centering to Grid along with…
[ QUOTE ] semantics shmantics MoP:) I shall carry on flipping my channels thank you [/ QUOTE ] Not really semantics. "Flipping" is a very different action to "Inverting". If you tell someone to "flip" a channel in Photoshop, that in no way indicates that they should be looking for the "Invert" command, especially when…
[ QUOTE ] using an orthographic view will cause the model to look distorted as you'll have no foreshortening or depth. [/ QUOTE ] That line bothers me because the image will still have both forshortening and depth (foreshortening simply refers to an object that is coming closer to the viewer and overlaps itself, and depth…
I think to do that you're going to have to write a separate file which just contains a list of the animation names, along with their start and end frame. I don't think MD2 format stores any animation segment names, as EQ said for Quake2 it was just a consistent list that the game used, and every model had to match up. I…
apparently this is a recurring post on the Mythbusters forum, there was an interesting reply: "As we've posted MANY,MANY times. Guns WILL fire in space without any problem. Modern gunpowders contain their own oxidizers and they always have. If you think about it, all guns enclose the powder away from the air so they can…
UV stretching occurs during the UVW mapping (which is also called unwrapping) step. This is where the 3d model is broken down like a cardboard box so it can have a 2d image applied to it. If it is not broken down efficiently enough in regards to the original shape of the model, it makes the texture look stretched or…

Do those shading issues show up in the normal map preview in the viewport? If you think about how a normal map works, it contains information about the highpoly normal relative to the lowpoly normal (hence "local space"), so it's actually quite natural to see triangles showing up in the shading, especially of flat surfaces…
Looks good, but yeah I agree with the others: showing wireframe/maps would definitely help get more critique :) From what I can see though, I think the windows don't very much look like windows. I thought they were a type of ornament like the face ones before I read your description. How do these windows work? What are…
