Seriously could someone explain to me how to export materials so I could upload them to the MDB? I'm totally lost. :?

You might want to refer to your exporter thread or forum. :)

Oh. I fail.

Now, to stop spamming your thread and start uploading my materials.


Do you mind if I post them in here? I'm sure they would make a nice addition to your emporium. :o

Sure go ahead :) I'll make a long composite list of materials (with their authors) later on, when we have more.

One more question (Sorry, :oops: I feel like im turning into ne0.. ) because you seem to have a pretty good grasp on this.

I'm trying to preview a material, and I have all of the UVset's set to UVTex (What they are supposed to be set to for the material preview, correct?), but I get the error that there is no such UVset as UVTex?

Although when I get rid of the displacement map the error goes away?

UVset should be uv, anything else and the exporter will cry.

This web page for this one, Baby Blue Plastic, doesn't work as intended. Click on view source and get an error message - click on download and get the source code :P

BTW great work your doing - going to download and test them - Scratced Copper2 works fine :lol: :D

Wood Material has the UV Set to 'default' which is not consistent with the rest though easy to fix. :D

BTW how does one render these using the preview? when I try in Blendigo it says can't preview external material so I have to render the scene instead. :?:
