Title: Importing 3d rendered graphics
Post by: Bender86 on Wed 30/07/2003 19:19:26
I was wondering how you guys imported your 3d grapics into your AGS games. I have made characters in Poser 5 and exported them as bmp files, but i cannot get an overall white background. When i import my image into AGS lots of impossibly small colours appear in the areas I thought were transparent. There is often a white outline around the character, and its too fiddly to paint all around the character.

Any advice or suggestions?

Although I have never worked with Poser I think you have to turn the background-option off when rendering your character so he doesn't stand in a "white room" but in front of a black wall.

Might be wrong though ...

uncheck the anti-alias option before you render it!! :)

EDIT:I'm not sure,...is there any anti-alias option in Poser?

I used the Poser 4 Render Mode and got NO Artifacts with my characters, they may look Cruddy, but no artifacts (Crap Around the edges of the Figure)

Yes, I turn off anti-alias before rendering my figures. Using anti-alias only within AGS will slightly improve the looks.

Danny, if you don't use poser, which programme do you use? Your graphics are REALLY good - have you considered doing some tutorials? The 3d rendered side of adventure games can be difficult to access for the average AGSer
