imported 3dmax stuff and texturing

kerabera

hello all.

i have many strange problème with working with 3dsmax and daz.

i'm building a spaceship room in 3dsmax and put some texture in it.when i import the file in .OBJ in daz3d,all the stuff is unvisible,but is here,i can select it.i'm think there is a problème whit the merging texture.

so i decide to texturing the stuff directly in daz but i have many problem to correctly size the texture.

in fact only one thing have the right preset,a little floor.

i used the tilling offset but nothing work,the texture on a wall for exemple is reduced to a little postage stamp and tilling it was completely unusable.

the room is sized at genesis character and texture is 4096x4096.

i really don't understand what happen.

Was the model UV mapped?

kerabera

no it's not uv mapped because the wall is made with just basic plane.

(and when i try to open my little room in hexagon,the software crash.....what a surprise)

Richard Haseltine

DS needs the model to be mapped - there are ways to set up a projection mapping, using Shader Mixer, but it's not in the default shaders (and I'm not certain it works with unmapper geometry).

kerabera

ok

If this is just a plane, you might want to model it in Hexagon and add to DAZ Studio that way.

As for the scene crashing... It might happen for two reasons.
1) You somehow made a really huge prop there which is not necessary.

2) You might have some weird n-gons there. Did you make sure everything there is in quads? A common mistake I see people doing is drilling a hole into a quad surface, creating this weird 8-point, empty inside polygon and then tell Hexagon to Smooth it, which immediately crashes the program.
