Importing Blender model with textures into SH3D
Hi,

I hoop this is not a doble topic, didn't found search thought the forum!

Blender OBJ model's textures don't get imported within SH3D, from my understanding textures' path should be "relative" on the .mtl file but it doesn't work:

newmtl TextureA
Ns 5.556124
Ka 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000
Kd 0.800000 0.800000 0.800000
Ks 0.178571 0.178571 0.178571
Ke 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
Ni 1.450000
d 1.000000
illum 2
map_Bump Mozaïek_Wit_norm.png

newmtl TextureB
Ns 225.000000
Ka 1.000000 1.000000 1.000000
Kd 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
Ks 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
Ke 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
Ni 1.450000
d 1.000000
illum 1
map_Ke TextureB.png
map_d TextureB.png

Here my Blender's texture settings

Any help is welcome!

Re: Importing Blender model with textures into SH3D
Sweet Home 3D doesn't support map_Bump, map_Ke and map_d parameters in MTL format. It supports only textures defined with map_Kd parameter and as you noticed, you should try to save them in the same folder as the MTL file to avoid possible issues.
