Topic: Autosmoothing

hi all,
so I tried this engine out a while ago and loved using it. I finally have time to get cracking with my project, cant wait to get stuck in smile

I've tried to import a few models and they've imported fine, but they seemed to be smoothed when I imported them. Is there any way to get round this? and is there a way to have some faces smoothed and others not?

thanks,
Rich

Re: Autosmoothing

Hi,
welcome !

When you are in Blender, start by applying "smooth" to the object,
then use the "edge split" modifier > you can specify an angle for auto-smooth or mark hard edges by hand :

Great, thanks for the help smile
I'll be starting mapping out my first level tonight, so hopefully I'll have some screenshots to upload soon.
