problem with converting mod

Post by WealthyHobo »

Hello

I have been trying to convert this mod: http://gamesmods.net/farming-simulator- ... -pack.html from fs 13 to fs 15

So far I have got it in the game, and it is functional as well. but the color is way too dark, it is almost completly black, and I can't figue out why.

This is what the trailers look like in my game in fs 15: http://imgur.com/n84C5z0

I've never made a mod myself, so I know pretty much nothing about the giants editors, but perhaps there is a colour change? Shadows? What happens when you put your light next to the model?

If I use the flashlight to light up the trailers, I can see the ret color more clearly, so it could very well be a shadow issue, I just don't know how to change it

Is it possible to change the lighting in the giants editor? If so, it should be there.

I acutally don't know, I'm not that good with the editor. The changes I made i just did by changing the coding in te xml file

Maybe look it up on Youtube, how to change shadows.

Check your Ambient and Specular in Material Editing...also the Cos Power...all those have some effect on your texture shading I beleive. Not saying your answer is there but it might be.

Sadly I don't have any reference on what does what exactly...as with almost everything, I trial and error until I figure it out...or get frustrated enough to move on to something else :)
