--Problem solved.See EDIT2 for solution.--
Hi,
i have a problem about bumpmaps. I created a mesh with these parts
body (all body. hands, legs...)
body_alpha (top and skirt)
body_alpha3 (belt)
body_alpha5 (inside)
(comments are ok, edited texture maps)
Then i cloned maxis hulaskirt and fixed integrity etc..
in the recolor file there were only 2 layers body and body_alpha
using body_alpha i created new groups body_alpha3 and body_alpha5, took all the texture files from there for body matbase and body matnormalmap
Now, everything works fine, except the bumpmaps of body_alpha and body_alpha3
body--working
body_alpha--only the bumpmap of the top is working (the main problem)
body_alpha3--not working at all (that's not a big problem i don't need it)
body_alpha5--working
I've tried=
*i created another recolor file with the groups 3 and 5 just to make sure i've done nothing wrong.All the texture files are unique and matd is ok.Groups are taking their bumpmaps from the files they were meant to.
*i removed all the other bumpmaps except body alpha, thought they may be affecting each other.
What i don't understand is why the bumpmap is working only for top of the dress (body_alpha) :blink:
What do you think?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT:I think i found the problem.Trying something to fix now.
EDIT2:It was so simple, i feel a bit stupid now :| Yeah i said that the mesh comments were ok, but i forgot to add hastangentarray line :) (Meshers rule 12:Don't try to create anything without sleep.) For explanation about that line see:
