I was able to install 3dsmax and wallworm and got it setup with my game configuration.
I also purchased a 3D model from CGtrader (small shrub) to test with the program.
I'm having a terrible time getting it to work and was wondering if someone could be of assistance to help me with specifics before I purchase the full version.
I tried this one: https://www.cgtrader.com/free-3d-models/plant/leaf/free-birch-trees-sample-model-0e11c5d19204c3c8e967811d54adbede#tab-scene-details (which is free) as well as this paid one here: https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/plant/bush/acacia-ehrenbergiana-shrub
I'm not able to export the shrub and this is what I see: https://image.prntscr.com/image/izgZ-ytdQdah_KfJjI2GCw.png :-\
The free birch tree is also screwed up badly: https://image.prntscr.com/image/GRDXswe1RoiC-ly8EPVIbg.png
I contacted the owner and he said:
" It looks like your converted TGA misses the alphamap.
An alphamap is responsible for displaying transparency. White is opaque and black is fullly transparent.
The alphamap is located in the dds files alphachannel. Depending on your game engine you can use the akphamap as an own image or keep it stored in another map for example."
I'm not too sure what to do from here.
I've read over the documentation but I'm clearly missing something and confused. >:(
