Hi guys! Sorry to bother but i am stuck.

I bough a model that i now have in fbx format with textures on.
I really want to get this character to my Gameguru. Problem is i need the characters textures in png or dds format right?

I don't have that, when i got the character she had just "base mesh" and i had to put the textures on for her clothes/skin via 3Dcoat.
It looked like this when i puzzel the textures on her in 3d coat

armor_albedo
armor_emission
armor_gloss
armor_metallic
armor_metallness+rougness
armor_normal
armor_occlusion
armor_roug
Then same with Body & Head.

( I know i have to scale faces in blender in order for it to work also, but this i know how to do.)
Is there any way to get the right texture format for Gameguru from a fbx file?

( I am noob yes )

Hi Skoglund,

the naming convention for GG would be:

armor_albedo ----------------------------------> armor_color.dds/png
armor_emission--------------------------------->amor_emissive.dds/png
armor_gloss--------------------------------------->armor_roughness.dds/png (please note gloss needs to be inverted)
armor_metallic----------------------------------->armor_metalness.dds/png
armor_normal------------------------------------>armor_normal.dds/png
armor_occlusion--------------------------------->armor_ao.dds/png

hope this helps

Hi Graphix! Thanks for answering, i'm not sure i follow, should i try convert the textures to dds/pngs before adding them on the base mesh?
They are in .tga files

Like this they look before applying them to base mesh in 3Dcoat:

armor gloss.tga
armor albedo.tga
And so on
Same with body & hair
body gloss.tga
body albedo.tga

Now that she has texture on and applied she is in fbx format, but unfortunately i don't have so i can add the dds/png to gameguru
(just a fbx file)

All her textures in tga files are separate one by one and has to be applied someway.
Otherwise she is just a white figurine body in the base mesh fbx.
(Sorry if i am confusing)

yes convert them all to PNG and try to import the base mesh and textures with the GG importer, i usually do it manually but give the importer a try.

Don't forget to rename them before importing

Wow thank you so much Graphix, this i will try!

I'm pretty sure the roughness map is called gloss in GG, and it's an inverted roughness map.

It's a roughness map named _gloss, which is the same as an inverted _gloss map

That's right, got confused there

Hi guys, i laid this character to rest "for now" since i had so many problems with it.

I am wondering.. I have a working character ingame (imported via fbx2gg) The character has no texture.

I have 6 diffrent texture files for the character

eye
grenade
head
legs
pouch
torso
(they are png but i also have original dds)

In the fpe-file under visualinfo & textured i can put torso.png for example and the characters torso has texture ingame but not the other body parts.

I have tried in the fpe to add all body-parts png like this
;visualinfo
textured = torso_d.png
= eye_d.png
= head_d.png
= legs_d.png
= pouch_d.png
= grenade_d.png
effect = effectbank\reloaded\character_basic.fx
castshadow = 0

But unfortunately only the first texture work not the other ones, so in this example still only the torso is textured, not the legs and so on

I read around i have to "bake" all pngs into 1 png for textures to work, is it so? And if it is, anyone know how to do it?
( Also i tried the same in the fpe file with the .dds files and same result )

I have been looking in to uv-maping in blender and tried to all into 1 map, but i have failed utterly and it's worse then before when trying it lol

UV mapping just takes practice. This will be the only way to get the combined texture on the character model.

Thanks Myke, been watching some tutorials, but can't find a specific for the problem i'm having, so am trying different approaches

Don't really know how to explain my problem since i am so noob at this, but i have allot of materials on my character this is how they look like in collection in blender

24_Material36_1_0_0
24_Material37_0.25_0_0
And 8 more with almost same names lol

And in UV editing i have 35 different .dds files

Wish this noob luck!

-Edit Holy **** i manage to do it!!!
This tutorial was big help! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH7Xdol5erw
