Maya Exporter material bug?

Ptr · Post by **Ptr** » Sat Jun 18, 2005 2:30 pm

Hello,

when I have a material in Maya, which type is -not- "lambert", the ogre exporter does not write the material properties into the .material file.

For example I export a lambert material, everything is fine. The written material file looks like:

Code: Select all

      lighting on
      shading  gouraud

      depth_write on
      depth_check on

But when the material type in maya is phong or blinn for example, the written material file looks like:

Code: Select all

      lighting
      shading 

      depth_write
      depth_check

As you can see, the values are completely skipped. Hope someone can fix this

Thank you!

i suggest you start using lambert. i dont think the exporter is set to read any other nodes inside the maya scene that isnt a lambert. its only my guess tho. good luck.

which exporter are you using? 6.0 and 6.5 should actually support blinn and phong....

Check your hypershade shading groups -- if there's still a connection between your model and the InitialSG, delete it. The lambert1 shader will always be exported as the default, unless there's no connection at all...
