Blender reads the mtl file and load the maps though not set up correctly of course. I just add the letter "X" in front of the mtl file name. Rename your mtl file, that way no textures maps are loaded on the initial importing of the model. Success, the plug-in is now functioning.Ī couple of tips, that has nothing to do with the plug-in.ġ. If disabled, there should be no toolbar extension at all. If AppLink Add-on is activated, you should already see the new buttons in the EX-Toolbar. Will be free, I don't plan to make money with it, I am having fun

The Import/Export Buttons in the Blender Toolbar to Update the material based on the AppLink imported data (hope it will work) The already implemented Import (does NOT need AppLink) My script will hopefully offer these things: But I will try to make it look like this: Since I have many other things in my pipeline, I will not be able to update the old AppLink scripts (they are rather big and complex and lack comments). Also I first have to use the "tranfer" button of the "old" AppLink" for the "Simple3DCoat AppLink"'s "Export" to work.ĭoes the AppLink work for you (except the material stuff)? If so, how is your workflow? I got the AppLink running, but "Import" doesn't seem to work for me. I am trying to alter my script, so that it will use the existing functionality. I can see the need for the AppLink update, that's the reason why I even started doing this I am investigating the existing AppLink(s) now (SimpleAppLink depends on the original). I changed both problems and updated the script (see end of you very much.

Of course the metallic needs to be connected to the metallic slot I totally overlooked the non-color thing. I may have been drinking too much Jägermeister that day. Hi you you very much digman for taking your time to test and optimise the materials! Now THAT looks waaay better. In this case it might require the use of a making an export constructor preset for the Addon. I can test to see if the problem is fixed. No luck and I tried a few naming conventions.Ĭan you show the proper names of the maps that 3DC needs to export. Looked at your Blender python script to see if I could get the naming convention correctly. There is no choice in naming your maps using the more simple Blender cycles settings in 3DC. I did not know at first you were creating a Blender addon. I think it is a possible naming convention problem of the maps.

A new Material is created plus the Pbr principled shader created but no maps are loaded. Select the same model, textures are in the same folder.ĥ. File menu / Import/ 3D Coat Pbr material.Ĥ. Installed addon, shows no problems with it in the preferences panel in Blender after closing Blender and reopeningģ. If there's a need and it seems to be stable, I will commit the Add-On to the official Blender Add-on page.

Thanks to digman for the advice on how to setup the nodes. If so, post your Blender Console output here (Window => Toggle System Console => Execute the Add-on => mark all text in the console and RIGHT click to copy) If all your textures/maps are in the same folder as your model (it should be, by default), then the plugin will create a new material for your selected object(s). This will open a file explorer in Blender.

Don't mix itĬopy the script content and paste it into a new file, named '3dCoatPBRImporter. Make sure to give each map the same extension in 3D Coat. If AppLink is present, new toolbar option available (WIP, not working for now) Metttalic, Roughness and NMap are now set to Non-Color Metallic now connects to the correct slot Since Blender 2.8 is still in development, I can't guarantee the Add-on to be working forever. I guess it should work with any of these.

I used Windows 64 bit (not the new compiler one). I just updated the script to V 0.7, it now supports Eevee in Blender V 2.8 (Blender Dev build, can be found here: )
