3D Steering Wheel: Texture issue

hello

i'm working on a 3d cockpit steering wheel for the early 90s-era and i got this strange issue with the textures.
while they look good in gp4builder, i get just one single color for each part once i test it in gp4:



Would be great if somebody knows the solution. if necessary, i can share the files as well.

thanks in advance,
carl

It might be the way the TEX was converted from a TGA, or even the condition of the TGA itself!! I think.
I can have a look at it for you if you like?

I recently had the same issue - no solution so far... I'm excited if someone finds out what the problem is...

yeah I'm interested in the results from this.

Looks like gameengine is set on 2d image and is calculating 3d mesh as one. Would it be possible to export one light source together with 3d object. Another thing I wonder if reversing normals would give any result.

Is the 3d steering wheel part of the helmet shape?

I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

Right I've had a good at this and I got the textures to work, I remapped everything into one .tex (steering_wheel_centre.tex), it still projects the thing as a 2D image, but the textures look ok! It was only a very quick texture job! No shadows or depth! Hope it help guys


Carl: I'll PM you the file back with the new files inside

thanks a lot flash formula!

his way does actually work, i just did a quick test on a clean gp4 install and tilted the camera with teameditor in the cockpit-view. what we see now is a fully working 3d-wheel in the regual cockpit-view. you can even see the handlebar spining.


i just have to work on the camera-settings now (btw: who knows how to do that in csm and without teameditor?

See Tweaker folder in a csm mod.
