Cheerz,

There is a little problem with Maya Exporter.
When I select / add a shader to mod in exporter, the exporter window grows/extends, and the info box / add shader button part goes out of screen downwards, and it isn't resizable. So it doesn't fit into proper desktop resolution. Using 1920*1080 desktop res. Second issue : setting up shader path correctly in exporter, but after exporting the shader path is missing.

Hi,

exporting the path (attribute) should work just fine.

Resizing the window (more adjustable window size) is a request we are aware of and will hopefully implement in the future.
Anyway, an HD resolution should be enough, I'ld say.
Can you show us a screenshot?

Cheers,
Emil

So :

Using 2 desktop monitors.
First case : in desktop manager, second monitor (1) placed to the left (as usual).

As u see, the variations, add shader button is out of screen.

Second case : in desktop manager the second monitor (1) placed to the bottom of the primary monitor.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B8vGgjw_PtzSTDFIUE1DcEQ3SjA

In that case the add button is available (not easy to handle).



Then I don't know what's wrong, but when I setup the correct path and add vehicleShader, it still missing from i3d after exporting without any warnings. The exported i3d contains for ex. : fileid="6" filename="" relativepath="true". I've tried emissiveLights too, it exports fine. Only the vehicleShader goes into empty path.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

thanks for the images.
That shows the problem very clearly.
I'm pretty sure that we will take care of the problem in the future, but I can't guarantee at what point in time.

Well, if you don't use both monitors at the same time for gaming ... you could rotate one monitor around 90°, at least if the monitor supports that.
I know, that's not a final solution.
But maybe a good start for your next modding session.

Where did you make the path point to?
I'ld say it should be a path in your mods folder - using a directory of the base game is not a good idea.
So, after aplying the shader by using the tools, check the applied attributes and their values. Maybe you can find smoething suspicious.

Cheers,
Emil

Thanks for the answer. The monitor supports the clockwise rotation, but i think i'll do it "the old ways" (placing shaders in GE)

About the ="" vehicleShader : the shader path point to Docu../MyGames/FS17/mods/tryingtomakesomemod/shader.
It fills up the ExtraAttributes tab except the customShader box, It leaves empty,

But well, it can be applied in GE. Thanks for yout time Emil!
