Texture problem in Octane

by **Manveer Dhillon** » Fri Apr 29, 2011 8:06 am

Hi all,
As you can see by the image provided my textures are funky looking. I've imported this model from Lightwave as a .obj and my textures are .tga files. Any ideas?

The UV map works fine in Lightwave. Is there a certain way I need to export the UV information?

Hi.

I've had the chance to use my friends Registered version of Octane Render with the Lightwave to Octaen exporter and I'm getting a worse result than my Lightwave built in exporter. Image provided of my issues. any ideas?

I've got the model to work in Octane..there were a couple of Sub Patched polys that weren't frozen.

The issue I'm having now is that the textures are not importing with the .obj file. The .mtl file and .obj file are located in the same folder and the file paths of the .mtl file are correct.

If you're mtl file contains valid textures they should load, if they don't load there must be a syntax or directory/filename problem...

Aye thanks for the reply. I'm just an artiste however..I'm not too sure what you mean by a syntax problem. Would you happen to know how would I go abouts resolving this :?:
