Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
If your folder structure is set up as;
[loco folder]
loco.max
loco.igs
etc
[/texture]
1.ace
2.ace
3.ace
Then you have to make sure you check the box saying "Export with Namespaces" in order for the shape files to look in the texture directory, otherwise it will look in the folder it's exported to and fail to find them.

Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
Check your paths in the material editor, make sure yoru model is looking in the correct place for your textures.
This happes if you copy assets from one place to another without making sure the paths are all correct.

Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
The textures must be in the folder as seen in 3D Studio Max - so if you put the textures in the 'engine' folder then that must be where they are in RW - take a look with Explorer to see where the missing TgPcDx is.

I think your folder system is wrong ?
I think your locomotive should be in something like..........
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Source\Your_Developer_Name\SlovenskeLokomotive\RailVehicles\Electric\541-001\Default\Engine\
and your textures would be in...............
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Source\Your_Developer_Name\SlovenskeLokomotive\RailVehicles\Electric\541-001\Default\Engine\textures\
The Blueprint Editor Geometry ID folder entry would be............
\RailVehicles\Electric\541-001\Default\Engine
3D Studio Max must point to the textures in above folder system
I think you have put the full folder path rather than the last part of the folder path in the Blueprint Editor ?
Can you show a screenshot of your Blueprint Editor screen please ?

Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
now i convert locomotive in the, but i have some bugs, you can see on the picture.
why the alpha texture have black points (green arrow)?
how can i fix the bufferr, because when i start the buffers are proper, but when i drive jump inside in other locomotives or wagons (yellow circle).

can anyone tell me hove i named pantograph and wippers, i have it done in 3DS max (animated too) but don't working in RW.

Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
you need 4 distance numbers.
example.
1_0500_Engine, you have a missing 0 before the 5.
If you have less than 4 numbers or 2 objects named the same then only 1 object will get exported from the scene.
Read the wiki or the RS docs it is all explained.

Re: Problem when export form 3DS max
post up a screen shot of your assets in the scene.
If there is an object in the scene that is not named correctly (object01 for example) then that will also cause this issue. Hide anythig not named correctly and re export.
