But I am not really satisfied, how models look when they got lighted in SED. Because it`s comic style, I only need the "Material Setup" for the skin editor in MED. But it looks totally different from what I see in my level. Until now, I - changed skin settings - saved mdl - run SED - build game - take a preview - not satisfied - back to MED - the 4 MED windows show the content of the SED and I can`t do anything - close MED - restart MED - open MED, load mdl - start again from above That`s VERY uncomfortable Is there a possibility to load lights from level and take a preview in MED? Cheers Ditje

When you want cartoon style, you wont achieve anything with material settings in MED. MED materials only have simple settings like transparency and so. Just use the cartoon shader that comes with Gamestudio. You can edit this shader in real time with the shader viewer. You can also edit it while your game runs when you copy the shader in your work folder and use the AUTORELOAD material flag.

Code: MATERIAL* mtl_mymaterial = { ambient_blue = 100; ambient_green = 255; ambient_red = 100; diffuse_blue = 0; diffuse_green = 100; diffuse_red = 0; specular_blue = 255; specular_green = 255; specular_red = 255; power = 10; } Quote: - the 4 MED windows show the content of the SED and I can`t do anything mouse right button on any window -> Refresh Views hope it helps you. Salud!

But it helped to learn more about all the editors. My first model took several days. The last one I created, took about 3 hours Both nearly equal work. Since the models are done, I just startet with my first own lite-C scripting besides the tutorials So the code came just in time. Cheers Ditje
