+ | * preparing well edges for ingame usage | ||
+ | ** select your object (you can always press (Z) to move the camera directly to your selected object) | ||
+ | ** go to 'Modify' > open dropdown list > select Nel Convert (this will add 'Rykol Patchmesh Convert') | ||
+ | * check for material ID | ||
+ | ** add 'Edit Poly' (not 'Editable Poly') from dropdown list, press (5) to enter the element mode, select all of your object (strg + a) and in the Meterial ID box the ID has to be between 1 and 100 in generell or it will not be supported well later, so change it to 1 when no mat ID is necessary | ||
+ | * auto smooth your object | ||
+ | ** (still in element mode and with everything selected) scroll down to 'Polygon: Smoothing Groups' and select 'Auto Smooth' with a generell value of 45,0 - if this won't work fine enough for your model, use the numbers of poly groups | ||
+ | * resetting XForm (this is important to export your model as a .shape later) | ||
+ | ** go to 'Utilities' (hammer icon) > Reset XForm > Reset Selected | ||
+ | ** go back to 'Modify' (second icon) > Right click on XForm > Collapse All (this should now end in 'Editable Poly') | ||

− | + | ** in Nel Material | |
− | + | *** change Shaders Type to 'Specular' | |
− | + | *** unmark (disable!) 'Enable water splash' - Please don't ask me why it is autmatically enabled. Maybe they were just water junkies :-) | |
− | + | ** in Nel Textures | |
− | + | *** recheck that all texture files are fine | |
− | + | *** check (enable) 'SpecularMap' | |
