Barricade24 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 So I have a series of models that I have mirrored objects from the left to the right and in Mod-View it looks fine, but whenever I take it in game, a good chunk of the parts are missing. I have a feeling this might be a shading related problem in some way. Anyone know the proper way of mirroring objects and having them appear in game correctly? Link to comment
Kualan Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 When you mirrored the objects, it is possible you flipped the vertex normals as well which might cause issues. When you have the meshes open in Blender, are the mirrored sides noticeably lighter/darker than the non-mirrored ones when in 'Solid' view mode? Link to comment
swegmaster Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I don't want to take over this thread, but I also have an issue with Mirroring Objects in Blender: I've mirrored Jeff's Arcann model, and I flipped the tags around a bunch. I renamed what was the left into the right, and what was right into the left. Like lhumerus = rhumerus. The issue I have with the model is it's noticeably darker than the non-mirrored model in solid view mode. In-game it appears dark, even in light covered areas, as if he was burned or something.

Boothand Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 If you (in edit mode) select everything and press CTRL N, does it look better? CTRL N is 'Make normals consistent', and usually solves issues with inverted faces etc. If the tags are flipped, that might need fixing of its own though, not sure. Link to comment
Barricade24 Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 Okay, probably replying way late, but the normals consistent fixed the problem right up! Thanks for the help @@Boothand. Boothand likes this Link to comment
Langerd Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 @@Barricade24 Yes fliping the model flips normals and model is starting to look weird. I suggest to unmark : backface culling .It is in transform settings under the shading. That will remove the second side of the faces and that will help to fix the normals. Also i suggest to press the space button and write :make all normals consistent or just flip normals Link to comment
