3D modeling thread #2 - re-render

[classicdrogn]

When I actually have occasion to try to import other people's models (mostly recently, of Trekmeshes) I've had a lot of trouble with the model parts appearing randomly translated and rotated, and while that much is fixed by finding all of the bits and returning them to 0,0,0 about three or four times out of five the texture maps will also be stripped off and give no hint of how to restore them. My guess is that it's an issue with 'doze versus *nix file path characters, but they don't seem to even have the slot where a map should be in the shader system, so I'm baffled.

If you meant MakeHuman, I've barely fiddled with it myself, but the one time I did have it export a model and brought it into Blender it just worked, rig and all. I'm still a bit groggy from waking up at the moment, but I can try documenting that much at least later on, I guess? Try anyway. Let me just see if I know how to take a screen grab...

...yes, but not with a menu open, so it's not nearly as useful. I'll come back to this when my brain has re0ascended the evolutionary ladder at least as far as multicellular organisms, right now all it wants me to do is engulf some food and wiggle away from lights or loud noises.
