Topic: Few issues with blender

I have run into a few issues when trying to get textures into maratis using blender.
I have installed the addon and all that however the 2nd object in the picture link is black.

Re: Few issues with blender

- first possibility :

Check the texture path: "..\maps\worldPlateGrass.jpg"

The path is relative to the mesh file, so your files should be arranged like this :
project/
    maps/
        worldPlateGrass.jpg
    meshs/
        yourMesh.mesh

If you moved the mesh in a sub-directory you need to edit the path in the mesh file, same if you moved the texture.


- second possibility :

There is no texture coordinates in your mesh file,
so be sure you have uv coordinates in blender (unwrap).

And don't forget to select UV in the texture coordinates :

read this documentation carefully : http://www.maratis3d.org/?p=277

I have made several attempts at making this work I also read the documentation.
However the result seems to stay the same even with changes to the file and correct lighting.
<image filename="..\maps\worldPlateGrass.jpg" mipmap="1" />
I have made sure everything is present and tried to change this header.

I also have a link to the files.

Re: Few issues with blender

You need to create texture coordinates by unwrapping your mesh in Blender :

After a lot of messing about I think I got this to work thanks for your help.
