AveryTheKitty 2626 Posted April 12, 2014 Right now I am working on a couple of things for my mod that require some changes to models/new models. I just started Object Builder today and I've seen the manual and it doesn't help. I'm having 2 issues: 1. How do I add textures in Object Builder? I am trying to port over the US Backpack to replace the Tortila/Carryall on the BLUFOR side. Right now I don't know how to do anything and help would be much appreciated. 2. I'm not using Object Builder for this, but I am trying to change out the normal map and SMDI map on a BI model, which is binarized. I've changed the paths to the textures I wanted to put in using Notepad++, but so far I've had no luck. Please help, Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zachgibson22 3 Posted April 12, 2014 For number 1, select your model/the parts you want textured. then hit E it will bring up the texture menu then choose the path to the PAA. For number 2, i dont have experience with this part sorry :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also when I move away from the bag, it's texture disappears until I move back up to it. Edited April 13, 2014 by Nightmare515 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zachgibson22 3 Posted April 13, 2014 Assuming backpacks work similar to helmets, you may have to add the property "autocenter = 0" to the geometry LOD. The properties box can be found at the bottom left of Object builder. The texture issue could be because you didn't apply the texture to all of the visual LODs you have. So only the LoD where you're right next to it has the texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zachgibson22 3 Posted April 13, 2014 the vidual LODS are just the "1.0000" "2.0000" ect. As well as the "View pilot" LOD. View plot LOD is what you see on YOUR guy in first person. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I figured it out, I need help with getting into the properties and setting autocenter to 0. Edit: Ctrl+1, also Autocenter is on 0.

zachgibson22 3 Posted April 13, 2014 Oh I totally forgot to say he Autocenter goes on the geometry LOD!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DerBiwi 10 Posted April 13, 2014 maybe, you have to set the prperties window under the topic "window" in active. If not, you have to right click on the red marked field (marked in the picture), then you can click on "New" and then write "autocenter=0" Here the picture, which should help you to find out where the prperties window is (attention: The position of the windows can be changed) http://www7.pic-upload.de/13.04.14/tdew5h6dxkoh.png (118 kB) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
