Hey,

Just started exploring this now too. I opened a high poly bed file and exported it as a proxy with a the object and .mtl file.
I opened a new .blend file and made a cube and attached the bed proxy to it, however the materials are all incorrect. I was wondering if thats just something to do with the .mtl file or if its possible to keep textures and full materials applied to the proxy?

It *should* work did you do an export of the bed first?

Any errors in the output?

Yeah, so I opened the original .blend file for the bed and then exported it as a proxy into a folder I named "proxy"
Then in the new blend file I created a basic box which i linked to the newly created proxy file.

This is how it renders as a proxy (proxypic.png), and this is how it should look https://imeshh.com/product/bed-with-big-knit-blanket/

Do I need to export the proxy object to the same folder as the textures folder? or pack the textures?

Sorry and I had no errors when exporting

Is the .mtlindex file beside the .mtl and .cgeo/.obj files? Is this binary export or .obj?

Yeah the .mtlindex was exported with the .mtl and .cgeo file.

And I think I ticked binary mesh export. I'll need to check when i get back home though

If you swap the lines in the mtlindex file does that fix it?

It happens sometimes, fix mtlindex text or sort materials in blender as they listed in mtlindex and export proxy again

Hmmm that sounds like a bug, wonder if I can write them out in the same order Blender has them (which is what was intended) instead of alphabetically.

Yes it was a bug, can you please try v8.0.48 I have tried to fix the mtlindex order to match what is in Blender

@monkriss   Try export your bed to the Proxy folder in the default export folder, not just any folder with a "proxy" name. It needs to be the default export folder under the Render tab in blender. Works for me.
