Avatar Texture Problem

Hi,
I'm using 3DSMax2012 to export 3 avatars from an avatar library into Cal3D. I had little trouble animating them and exporting the first (a single mesh model), but the other 2 don't show textures.

I tried applying the texture in vizard, but I don't know how to get the hair mesh texture to work (the body texture just applies a duplicate of itself to the hair also).

I couldn't find how to deal with meshes with several textures, or how to export "Multi/Sub-Object" materials. How do I export these into Cal3d format?

It might have been that the mesh had the same name as the skeleton (aside from the .cmf extension). After adding [0] and [1] to the materials I enabled fliptexture in the .cfg and everything seemed to export ok.

Hi,

In any case if this thread is open then please let me know that is there any method available to get nodes from CAL3D avatar?

I want to apply shaders & texture to individual nodes of CAL3D Avatar. To get those nodes I wrote the following code.

Code:
import viz
import vizact

viz.setMultiSample(4)
viz.fov(60)
viz.go()

female = viz.addAvatar('vcc_female.cfg')
female.setPosition([0,0,3])
female.setEuler([180,0,0])
female.state(12)

print 'Model contains the following scene graph nodes:'
for name in female.getNodeNames():
    print ' ',name
and I am getting this output
Model contains the following scene graph nodes:
casual01_f_highpoly.CMFX
casual01_f_highpoly01.CMFX


I am not able to get the subnodes which I use to get in OSGB models.

You can specify the mesh name as the optional node parameter when applying the texture/shader. For example:
Code:
female.texture(tex,node='casual01_f_highpoly.CMFX')
