Title: Sketchup Import - Materials not working properly
Post by: filemon147 on 2018-02-26, 18:34:07

Hey, so i'm working on a imported sketchup model (I know it sounds like trouble right away)

To make things easier i've separated all geometry in SU model by material, and turned it into groups. This way I can easily apply materials.

There's a problem though - when I apply corona materials to these objects, it seems that only color is applied. Changing tiling value doesn't work, also converting to editable poly.
Scale of SU geometry is good, i've checked it, it's centimeters, and 3ds units setup is also centimeters.

On photos there is soil material from vanilla corona package applied to a surface imported as mesh to Max from SU8.
Any suggestions?

Hi. I'm pretty sure it all about missing or wrong UVW's. Another possible cause, could be scale.

So reset X-form and apply a propper UVW, should solve this.

Hope it helps.

Yup, indeed UVW was bamboozled. Thanks.
