Hacking Ray's Mario Kart 8 Course Modding Tutorials

[WilliamtG]

Hey, so I tried to import a few static objects in Cloudtop Cruise (ex. Cityboat) but they crash at the loading screen. Am I missing something? The same thing is happening to my friend and we wondered if we were doing something wrong.

Thanks!

The course won't import in Blender. Despite of this, after I imported bfres file in Blender, it gives a traceback error. I need help.

 

[Ray Koopa]

And the error message is?

 

[Bri11]

"Failed to load DLL Traceback (most recent call last), FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory."

 

[Ray Koopa]

Apparently you didn't set up TexConv. Please follow the installation instructions for io_scene_bfres on its wiki https://github.com/Syroot/io_scene_bfres/wiki/Installation

and then
https://github.com/Syroot/io_scene_mk8muunt/wiki/Installation

 

[Bri11]

The installation instructions went very well until I got to the part on where it says to zoom out, and I am trying to find how I can zoom out.

 

[Bri11]

Everything went well for me except the zooming out part, because I can't zoom out in blender to see the course.

 

[Bri11]

Installation instructions for Blender were followed. Slight problem, I can't zoom out in Blender.

mouse wheel. Please ask on Blender forums for Blender related questions

I clicked import bfres/szs, chose the DK Jungle bfres file (i already extracted the szs externally), but after all the textures were converted, the model just didn't apeared.
You can check if my params are good cause i don't know what's the problem here.
I have a course_model.work with all the textures both in gtx and dds format

Now it's a texture problem

 

[Ray Koopa]

That's not a problem, that just says the addon doesn't understand or had to reinterprete some textures to make them show up "correctly" in Blender. Note that add-on is quite old and did some mappings wrong.

So the thing that the model doesn't appear isn't because of that (yes it still doesn't appear)

 

[Ray Koopa]

Have you followed the steps I linked to?

 

[Mat37]

Have you followed the steps I linked to?

Yes, i was already following them before you sent the link (sorry for haven't specified it)
It only apears when i choose to don't import textures

 

[Ray Koopa]

Then there's an exception somewhere later, not a warning. You should send the whole output and a screenshot after following the steps, as in the first screenshot, you didn't follow them.

 

[Mat37]

Now the model appears, but i understand what you mean by "textures not showing up correctly"

 

[Ray Koopa]

It definitely shouldn't be that bad and look almost correct. Maybe you're using a weird TexConv utility or something in your Blender output shows an exception.

 

[Mat37]

Maybe you're right, I found TexConv2 in a TexHackU folder somewhere in my disk.
The only exception Blender shows is the one i showed.
