Wie bekomme ich denn die Specular-Map mit exportiert? Ich habe das mir wie im Screenshot eingestellt. Diffuse und Normal Map werden exportiert, aber nicht die Specular.

Which i3d Exporter are you using?
Are all you image files in the same folder?

FYI: your NORMAL MAP "Color Space" should be "non-color".

With the Giants Exporter it is working partially, with the StjerenIdioten I only get the diffuse and normal map exported. But the directory could be an issue, diffuse is different from normal and specular.

Ein Update für die version 3.X.X wäre auch mal schön

I am using BLENDER 3.5.0 and the GIANTS Blender_i3d_Export_9.0.1 without major issues .

I manually install the exporter in the C:/Users/"your_username"/AppData/Roamig/Blender Foundation/Blender/3.5/scripts/addons FOLDER.

The exporter auto installs to a different folder.
In Blender, when looking at addons, put "i3d" in the search box to see if there are multiple copies installed.

My edit to the GIANTS Blender_i3d_Export_9.0.1 fixes the "vehicle material array tool not found" ERROR MESSAGE.
Fix is to make sure the columns receive a integer for scaling and not a float value


Adding updated material images to the exporter.

Change:
num_cols = max(1, context.region.width / cell_w)

to:
num_cols = int(max(1, context.region.width / cell_w))

Location: io_export_i3d/tools/vehicleArrayTool.py inside the I3D_OT_VehicleArrayPanel class

I do know the Blender Exporter Plugins v9.0.1 works better in the Blender "Layout" TAB when exporting. I deleted the Blender "Modeling" TAB and have fewer issues. I purchased the GIANTS Modding Tutorials 5.0, worth every penny. In the Tutorial videos, Giants export from the LAYOUT Tab. I only use "Layout, "UVEditing" and "Shading" TABS in Blender.

I created a "textures" FOLDER in both the Blender file location and id3 file location. Then have a copy of your .dds and .png files in each folder.
This prevents the Error: Missing dds file and Error: Can't load resource.

Hi zusammen. Seit den 5.10 gibt es den neuen Blender Exporter.... weiß schon jemand welche neuen Funktionen er hat und wie man sie richtig verwendet ..habe noch keine doku dazu gefunden.

Auf jeden Fall hat er schon mal Unterstützung für Blender 3.0 und 3.6.
