Best 3d format for jme3

Troubleshooting import-assets
1

I tried the hello collision example with my own .obj model, but it looks weird and deformed… So I think that the .obj format is not a good choice? What would be the best format to export my 3d models?.. Many people use ogreXML, but I don’t know how to export it with Autodesk Maya 2011…

The obj format is good for static models and it should work, could you post a screen of how deformed it is?

Ogre is good because it supports skeletal animations, I think there is an Ogre Exporter for maya see on this page http://www.ogre3d.org/download/tools

look here for ogreExporters [OGRE Exporters]



Is it possible during the course of modeling that you rotated the model in object space?

ok try that after loading your model





TangentBinormalGenerator.generate(scene);



is that better?

6

hmm try inverting the normals in the editor



or adding this line while loading the model TangentBinormalGenerator.generate(scene);



or doing what nehon suggested

I lately imported an obj model from maya 11 and I had to flip the textures and do the Tangents thing to make it work.

hmmm…with the tangents thing it’s like before… what do you mean with flip the textures?
