Title: Corona 7 Proxy materials
Post by: Gold over Blue on 2021-08-27, 10:11:16

Hi guys,

I have been experiencing some issues with the proxy creation. Everything works fine, but on some objects it doesn't recognize all the materials on the original mesh. I am trying to convert a sofa which has 11 materials with polygon selections and on the proxy itself only 10 appear. This only happens on a couple of objects, but I still haven't been able to pinpoint why exactly it happens :/ Is anyone else experiencing the same?

Thanks and hopefully someone can shed some light into it.

Zé

Hello,

are you using 11 different materials? The material manager inside Corona Proxy should create layers for each material that is used on an object, with additional layers if one material is used with different mappings. If you have 1 Material assigned to 2 poly selections, layers for these two tags will get collapsed into one. (We are still thinking of improving this workflow)
If you are certain that you are using 11 different materials and only 10 layers show up, would it be possible to share the scene with us so that we can improve on it?

Thanks,
Jan
