As long as you can convert the model to .obj.

Default Adding In Ships Documentation.

I found some older useful documentation, & pointers pertaining to
(importing in your ships with S3D) covering a little more on nodes, explinations

if you want to read up some over in the Submarine Sim Central forums.

what am I doing wrong?

The render of the model looks perfect in 3d max but in the game the texture is all over the place


Thanks

Do you know how to move objects between S3D and Blender? I need to change a pivot point of one object, to make it rotary, so i exported object from S3D, imported to blender, changed origin, export to wavefront .obj and when i want it import back to S3D i got the rerror msg" "InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelectedIndex'. Parameter name: Selected Index

So what i did wrong?

I think i found the problem. Blender was exporting faces in incorrect format.
After few unsucessfull tries i read how the format works ( http://paulbourke.net/dataformats/obj/ ) and create my own "mvorigin" script.
But now, when i'm trying replicate the problem i can't replicate it. Now exports looks correctly (i didn't try import it, just as im looking into the file).

Well, so problem remains. Im not able import any object created or modified in blender. :-(
So here it is. I get tactical map (i didn't find object which is more simple) and export it by S3D, can download there: http://www.ucw.cz/~jerome/SH3/test/
And then i import it to blender and export it out. That's only action i did with object. After that i change Linux end of line (LF) to end of line which is used by windows (CR+LF). You can download it there: http://www.ucw.cz/~jerome/SH3/test_blender/
(missing uv2 just ignore, it is not important at this moment)

When i try it import back by S3D, i got that error ""InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'SelectedIndex'"

I found it! S3D needs to have group name, but in blender export is just object name. So when i change line "o MAP_tactical_it1.001" to "g MAP_tactical_it1.001", S3D import it without problems... so stupid thing, LOL :-)

Sorry, I haven`t seen your question earlier.
I had exactly the same problem. There is no need to edit the files manualy.
In my case the problem was gone, as I checked "objects as obj groups" * in the blender export options.
greetings

*Edit: Sorry. Don´t check "material groups". Was a mistake of mine.

**Edit 2: After some testing it seems that sometimes is nescessary to check "material groups", sometimes not. It worked fine for me to have both checked , but now I stumbled upon a modell - the NLGH lightship - where checking "material groups" during blender export messed up the whole texturing after reimporting in S3D.

Perhaps someone has more knowledge about these things?

And also i noticed, that SH3 allow only triangles, in blender you can do it in edit mode by pressing ctrl+t.


EDIT: Aha... i found, that you can check "Triangulate faces" option in export menu.

And isn't problem in that, that you by mistake unwrap some part of model and by this step was mapping changed in other way as was texture mapped originaly? Once i did it by mistake too and didn't noticed at first, just after i compared mapping of original object with my version.
