car conversion

Martin918RSR · 7 March 13, 16:09

Hello I have a question. I downloaded a model from forza the ford transit SSV but I have a problem converting it. Bregels tutorial shows everything from scratch but the model I downloaded wasn't split up in the same way..please, How do I split these parts up so they match bregels tutorial or something resembling that. So I can move on and convert some cars

Thanks in advance

Export back to obj, choose split by material option in export window. Import with split by material selected.

Now I get a error saying "failed to locate preferable environment texture "chrome.dds". Adjust filter preference in profile editor"

Help please?

^^ You need the chrome.dds to NFSEnvMap.bmp. TO do this:

1. Options>Settings
2. Profile>Editior
3. Preference>Filters>EA NFS Shift
4. Change chrome.dds to NFSEnvMap.bmp in the EnvMap section
