the next beta will contain the needed function.

thank you ventilator for trying!

When will the next beta arrive anyways? I've been anxiously waiting for its release!

Yes. This indeed looks awesome!
Im working on some outdoor level fr my paintball game and i prefer to make the level with 3dmax and do all the lighning inside of it, so baking the lightning on the textures would be better to me than using lights in wed.

i hope this come to be developed.

i am almost there...

there just are two problems.

it only works in lite-c so far. the plugin version still crashes and i don't know why.

and in lite-c there seems to be some problem with materials so i can't display the light map. but i am 99% sure that the mesh loads correctly and both uv-maps are there.

<edit>

it works! i still have the two problems but i combined lite-c + c-script to get the material working in the meantime.





(it's my ugly test level.)

</edit>

Looks great !!!
I already feel like playing this level

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY VENT!

Did u make and light that in Blender?

Einfach geil!
In english: You should know what "geil" means.

i modeled this in blender a while ago for testing something else. modo isn't that great for things like extruding roads along a curve since it doesn't have something like a construction history or modifier stack yet. you wouldn't be able to go back to edit the curve if some change were needed.

to bake the light map i used modo. blender is supposed to also feature baking now but i haven't figured out yet how to use it properly.

Vent do you think it would be possible to integrate this into the obj_splitter tool you wrote? Then people could create entire levels in any 3D app that does obj, with lightmaps -- dreamy!

unfortunately obj doesn't support two uv-sets either i think. so you would also have to export twice (a second time with the light map uvs) and i could add a small option to append something like _lm to the model filenames during the second export. then a script could generate all the needed mesh files. it would make the whole thing even "hackier".
