Creating 3D Banners from 3D Models
THIS IS A W.I.P
This was made because of the huge lake of TRUE 3D banners.THIS IS A W.I.P
This guide will only go over the basic way of doing it because the other way involves using the NW4C, but you can still make some cool banners. The steps during this can get confusing, and I'm trying to make them clear, but I don't expect you to be that guy and learn to model and make banners in one day. If it put something in this guide that shouldn't be there(Such as links to illegal stuff(wich there shouldn't be in this guide)) PLEASE TELL ME AND ILL FIX IT AS SOON AS I CAN!
What you need
- A modeling program that can export .obj with .mtl(I suggest Wings3D)
- The knowledge to model(There's a lot of tutorials out there on how to model).
- Every File Explorer(Direct Link)
- Ohana3DS Rebirth(Direct Link)
- Start up your modeling program.
- Create the 3D model using the program and make sure it follows the rules below.
- Your model MUST follow theses rules!
- There must be only one object, which means you must combine all objects into one!
- The object should be named "COMMON".
- DO NOT use models with a lot of polys.
- UV map your model and make sure it follows the rules below.
- Your UV map MUST follow theses rules!
- There may only be one UV texture!
- There must be no Alpha textures.(You can try to use alpha, I could not get it to work though)
- The UV map's name must be "COMMON"!
- When you are done all that your model should be like this
- Now export it as OBJ with MTL but make sure that tesselation is set to Triangulation, or you will have errors in the future.
- You should now have something like this
- Congrats now you can convert it to a CGFX!
- Open Every File Explorer.
- Select File > New from File > Nintendo 3DS Plugin > CTR Graphics (CGFX)
- Select your model
- When it asked you for a model name type in "COMMON"
- Select File > Save
- Save it anywhere as anything
- Open the location where you saved it and rename the ending to .cgfx
- Open Ohana Rebirth
- Drag the .cgfx model on to it
- If you now see your model you have made a working CGFX which you can use with bannertool and makerom!
