      Hey, as I mentioned in my first post I actually started the whole learning of C4D etc. for more than just Starmade. Sadly for that exact reason I could not be very active in Starmade lately (and also won't be for a little longer). Now I like how active you guys are in here, this was actually...

      Thats really interesting. By the looks of it I am guessing the software creates seperate objects for all materials? That can be pretty useful if you just want to edit the characteristics of a single material. Crusade Hey I've been looking at your renderings and I always notice those nice...

      Crusade All I can tell you is that there is two types of normal maps. One is called Tangent Space normal map and consists of only two mixed colours, the other one is using the whole RGB spectrum and are called Object Space normal map. Maybe starmade uses the RGB one why blender tries to read the...

      After further testing I realized that my small ship does no longer help to really test characteristics of all the different settings. Since I have never finished any larger builds I decided to use one of SkylordLuke 's stations :). I mostly played with reflections which you will notice in the...

      No worries haha, thats what the thread is about. Wow you are doing exactly what I want to do with the difference that you are succeding xD The reflexions in C4D are giving me a headache right now. Recently they changed the way it works and all the tutorials are still made for previous versions :(

      Okey so last night I spend several hours creating my own maps just to find out they already exist? .-. Now I feel stupid

      Good news! I found a way to fix the 2d entities! This should even fix things like metalgrills and such but I haven't tested it. Here shown with Cinema 4D: I created 3 alpha channels for the 3 textures in the exported model. Now I haven't used Blender for a long time so I don't remember how...

      Sweet! About the sprites, I used to have a program that let me export Minecraft schematics just like Starmade does now but the exported file had an extra texture that only contained all the alpha channels. If schine somehow integrates those we should be able to fix the issue. Does blender have...

      Here is a gif I made using MagicaVoxel! Works pretty well IMO!

      In this thread I want to share my first experiences with 3D exporting and also want to encourage you to post your own experiences! So recently Starmade got the feature to export 3D models that can further be used by 3D editing software. So far it doesn't seem to get much attention but...
