Have been able to create a tutorial to get MAX into Oblivion?

Best Regards

Paul

I knew from the get go that the Oblivion toolkit was an amazing value- so much functionality for so little $$$. The only problem is the lack of serious (produced by the dev team) API documentation and the many facets of the engine that Bethesda is keeping under wraps. Your work here would be very, very valuable to users of the TES toolkit, please post again when you have your tuturorial put together, even in a “half baked” stage!!!

Thanks, how do you get your model from Max into the Oblivion engine?

I don’t know how the Oblivion engine works, but in terms of lighting, using the Source engine might be a better choice. Imported models (props)are able to cast shadows.

Is it possible to make the photo based textures self illuminating, like a surface shader so that the shadows don’t conflict?

From there we exported into the Oblivion Engine. There are a few ‘hoops’ to jump through before it works and we hope to find a more direct route from SketchUp without involving Max.

I’ll post some more updates on progress and a walk through guide once its all in place.
