Oi, I come bearing screenshots in hope that they will reveal the truth!..and possibly help solve this overall problem.
This is actually two questions:
1). Why is it when I try to add multiple groups, the recolor file that I linked my mesh to disappears in Bodyshop? And, this is not the first time..this has been happening countless of times. First time it happened I thought I just made a mistake..but when it comes to the fourth and fifth time, then I think I'm missing something here. :wtf:
Explain: Before I go further, let me explain my project. I'm trying to make an alpha shirt with a long skirt that goes a little below the shins. Here, I was testing out combining alpha groups from multiple meshes, from Warlockk and sleepless_angel. I put everything together, correct the UV map, check the comments, and then export like normal. I follow Cat's tut on how to add recoloring groups, and I believed I was following it pretty well. However, here's where my second question comes in:
2) What does this mean? 1. Add your CRES and SHPE and link them in the 3DIR to the correct age as you usually do, to link the recolour package to your mesh. Remember to delete the CRES and SHPE from the package when you’re done. This is the first step to making recoloring packaging files, in CatofEvilGenius's tutorial on alpha layers, and I simply thought that this was part of the OLD method of linking meshes from one of Tiggerypum's tut. I'm I wrong to assume this? :turtle:
Anyways, like I said, I do have some screenshots and I'll leave my package files if anyone wants to see if I did anything incorrectly. I've tried creating alpha layers with the hoola skirt, but those projects ended in disaster. I know how to link and extract meshes like the back of my hand, and have been successful thus far until this project of alphas. I also provided a screenshot of the package file, as well. If you want me to provide the comments, I'd be more than happy too..also, don't hesitate to tell me to start over if it may be a linking issue..
~over and out
