How would I export a model composed of many different objects/meshes in Blender? When I use Chicken, single-object textures work perfectly, even with latticed shapes (or w/e you call 'em ), but when I try to create a multi-object model, such as a ship, it does not show up on the Panda previewer. I created a snowman with different colors, items, etc, highlighted it and went to export it. There weren’t any errors, but it didn’t show up.
It should work just fine. You do need to select everything you want exported, regardless of any heirachy structure, but that is the only potential gotcha I can think of. What happens if you export individual parts of the snowman? Sure your not making some other mistake?
Lethe,
Thank you for the reply. I could export individual pieces of the snowman, but I don’t want to have to load the models all into Panda as different models. I want to be able to position one model, not one at a time. I tried selecting all of them and it worked, but the colors and textures don’t stay. I unwrapped them and did everything correctly that worked with single objects, but when I try to export objects at once that have different textures, they won’t appear in the display – it becomes a white shape.
Well, that shouldn’t be the case. Don’t suppose you can post (Or email me directly) a demonstration file so I can have a look? I have most certainly exported what you describe myself in the past, so I know it should work!
