Texture export issue

Gaieus

What happens if you right click on the material thumbnail and "export texture image"? Does it come as colorized?

Dave R

Have you tried using "Create Material" instead?

Hi Dave

Yeah that was one of the 1st things I tried. The key problem to be solved is how to in effect flatten the texture (like you would do with filters in a jpeg in photoshop)

If you export the 3d model as collada (DAE) you will have a folder with current textures in your model even if modified.

same problem as before. I am thinking the best way is to render a square with the painted on colour then replace all the sections with the new jPeg

Thats where they are being corrupted (reverted back to original) I can only presume that the export does not take into account the colour overlay I have assigned and therefore just ignores it.

Thanks for everyones help by the way

Just tried and it's working here.

For one second I thought I was going mad. Just check my export folder with textures and it is exactly as I said (original texture without paint)

Export and post the material.

If you've created a new material, purge the old one from the In Model library. Then the white version shouldn't even be available during the export.

I don't have SU8, but I can assure you that in 7.1 it works fine.

[off:r9dcwdf8]Why I don't have SU8? I don't need to upgrade the pro version and a bit scared about two versions of SU on the same computer (mess)... [/off:r9dcwdf8]
