DAE Export problems

Postby oobi007 » Fri May 07, 2021 6:38 am

Hello,
i try to export a model as DAE, for use in Cinema4D

My first try works perfekt, but since my second try it wont work anymore.
The textures are not on the mesh, the model is only gray.

When i load my first try in C4D then here are any "...exportMesh" entrys with the textures.

Why does makehuman exports this meshes no more?

It is very difficult to answer this without knowing what you do when you export.

Can you send screenshots on:

* How the model looks in MH
* What options you select when exporting
* How the directory with the export looks. Of particular interest is the "textures" subdir which should be where the exported file is saved.

Textures are not included in the DAE file. They're saved as separate files in the textures directory.

I have no idea how Cinema4D works. But I imagine there must be a material settings panel somewhere. In this you should be able to see what the diffuse texture points at. My guess is that Cinema4d has failed to populate this setting, or somehow gotten it wrong. The easy fix would be correcting the setting of this field.
