BadHorse , Wow, just curious are you using blender or something else? KeyShot 9. |

Here's it is: Imperial_SD_Mission_Briefing_Room_Package• Some of the SooG meshes are the same as SD Hangar, so I didn't include them in this package. If you really want them, then you can go grab them from that previous share. • Yes, I am aware that there is a chair magically floating below the briefing room pit. No, it's not a mistake ... or at least it's not my mistake. It's exactly where the blueprint said it should be. Feel free to delete or relocate it as you see fit. Free chair!   |

"Free chair!" Awesomeness! Thanks for the great work!

I mainly use these models for 3D printing. I've yet to come across a game model which I didn't have to correct or repair. I mainly use Sketchup and I have a good workflow down and if you know it's limitations, you can work around them (precision at small dimensions). I would love to hear what anyone else is using. Tips and techniques are always appreciated. And I will gladly share what I've learned from correcting game models for 3D printing. Oh, and to the contributors, thank you for all your hard work! You know who you are!  |

Forgot to mention, I also included my own special “Galaga” variant of the pit computer screen (look closely).  |

It's okay, this is probably the first time I've actually seen a chair in a Imperial room anyway lol.
But yeah, excellent job dude! I've been converting some of the character models from Squadrons to DAZ3D, so I'll be able to make a render of Rae Sloane with this pretty soon |

Just had a question though, none of the textures are assigned when I open the FBX file up in Blender, will I need to reassign the textures manually?

It would be great if you could share those DAZ3D models! I’ve been looking for a good tutorial about converting models to Daz ,with no luck. Do you know of any good tutorial? Thanks |

Just select an object and create a NEW material for it...Best part about this is you can rename to something that makes sense to you instead of 68768798990934734.mat you can now just call it "Floor Texture"...and you won't have those gazillion textures assigned to the file any more!!  |

^Nope, what I'm doing is taking the original model, making a character morph of their facial features, and transferring their skin textures using Wrap3D. I then import a modified DAZ body into DAZ to make a morph out of it, creating what I think is a fairly accurate and full body model of them.
It doesn't work with everything, but it's definitely worth doing. You can find tutorials on how to do it through Shinteo on youtube or through their Patreon.

Ohh I see, so you're capturing the faces and converting them to one of the Genesis figures. Who have you done so far?
I've been taking kind of the opposite approach: creating wearables out of clothing and alien heads. For instance, I can put the Nikto head on a figure as sort of a mask; it even has limited expression capabilities. For clothes, unfortunately, the mesh quality is often quite poor so doesn't work well for conversion.
I've also rigged from scratch a couple models: the BX Commando as well as a Kowakian monkey-lizard model I got from somewhere I can't remember.

As for the Daz rigged version, I'll see what I can do. I'm not entirely sure how the file structure is handled in Daz for a scene subset, and how the model is linked to that. I also want to see if I can improve the rigging a little bit first.

So far I've done Rae Sloane, Rella Sol and Havina Vonreg. That's ignoring the roughly twenty or so other character morphs of done characters from the other star wars games and movies too lol. |

The latest project (Nadiri dockyards). So far the meshes have been reasonably well-behaved, but I expect that the texture work is going to take a very long time. ... Holy crap! And good luck! |

Thanks, I'm going to need it. Nearly every component mesh uses 2 UV channels so lots of re-baking of textures, and 3DS Max (required to run the assembly script) sometimes just refuses to load the UV mappings for some meshes, forcing me to use a workaround repair. Fun times. At least all of the 1,653 component meshes (4.1Mtriangles) seem to have assembled nicely. |

Ohhh reallly? Where might one get those character morphs? Well, currently I have no idea how to actually export these morphs for use yet, so they're still not published unfortunately. I can export the characters out for use in Blender and things like that, but the morphs themselves are something I still need to look into. |

You could try uploading a character as a scene subset, then I can load it and see what it says is missing. |

I'm tempted to, but I hate doing it that way because it means you'll have to track down outfits and whatnot that you might not have. Might end up doing that though |
