Wombat meshes

[Celeyan]

Okay so I know what to do with the textures and meshes but they always show up white ;A;


Can someone help? I'm new to materials and stuff x3

[Thierry]

are you trying to put wombat meshes in to FH yourself or you have downloaded the wombat animal pack from the forum?

[Celeyan]

I'm trying to put them into Fh, I already have the food and animal pack

[Thierry]

well, the most common error at animal pack,  are people don't use the object file.

try this:
copy all WombatAnimalPack files in to FeralHeart\media\objects\my_objects, except WombatAnimalPack.object.

copy WombatAnimalPack.object in to FeralHeart\media\objects.

then at object/map maker, you will see a new group called WombatAnimalPack, when you use it, you will see the models with textures.

at food pack, you need to put the materials names manually, if you don't know how, ask here.

Thats not what I meant, I mean I have some wombat meshes from the site but when I do the materials they always show up white.


I already have the animal and food pack, They are working great C:

sorry

if i understand well this time, you have the wombat game and you want to copy meshes from wombat to FH and you are getting all white, right?

you can give a link to the game plz?

[Celeyan]

I don't have the wombat game o.o

http://wombat.worldforge.org/dir?path=3d_objects

That site is what I was talking about, I'm trying to put the meshes in there into Fh

i think you have used the material script from the web site, and maybe it doesn't work.
maybe you need to do the material script.

to do the material script is simple and fast to learn.

create a empty text file, and save it with some name with extension .material, ex: wombat.material

add this code to the empty text file:
(this is for non transparent materials)


material yourmaterialname
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         texture_unit
         {
            texture yourimage.png
         }
      }
   }
}


modify the "yourmaterialname" with any name, and the "yourimage.png" with the image that comes with the model.

there is a example for transparent materials:


material fruit/beet
{
   technique
   {
      pass
      {
         cull_hardware none
         cull_software none
         alpha_rejection greater_equal 128
         texture_unit
         {
            texture beetTex.png
         }
      }
   }
}




PD: after you have make the material script, at object maker you need to put the material name you have write.
PD2: create a text file, not a word document. if you don't figure how, copy and modify any other material script from other meshes
i have think wombat was a game, sorry

you are welcome.

maybe my small forgotten tutorial will be helpful for future meshes:
