Modkit is currently broken.

So now everything works ?

Textures, YES and oh boy do we have some options on our hands now. FBX meshes, haven't tried...YET but I've a feeling they'll work as well with the new parameter to export in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2013 and 2016 FBX formats. Custom materials also still work so we ought to be set to go

Fire up those ovens boys! We've some mods to cook

I just tested it myself and still got the texture issue, so do I have to uncook the content folder again for this version?

I wander will this new update work with Maya 2017. I'm just asking because if not I can just use Maya 2016, if that works as well.

It should work; Maya 2017 should be backwards compatible with 2016. Just need to set the "-fbx=" parameter to "2016" when extracting the .w2mesh with ModKit 1.3

Maybe a little off-topic but what exactly this new update allowed you to do? Are there new type of mods you can make, or did it make things a lot easier and faster?

- you can now export fbx meshes in about 5 versions so we should be able to skip the .DAE conversion bit
- you can import custom materials into the game. this allows you to edit meshes which theoretically share the same material with others and caused a knock-on effect on the other meshes you DIDN'T want to mod
- you have a sh!tload of options to import textures (transparency etc.) so no more hair issues etc.

...and maybe a lot more stuff but I haven't got around to test these all

it's not easier nor faster (modKitchen doesn't have support for the new arguments..) BUT things now WORK!

Can somebody tell me with what programm modkitchen was made, id like to edit/expand it to the new modkit

Pretty sure it's .NET based and was built using Visual Studio.

Thank you so much for that tip. And thanks for your help.

Downloaded the 1.3 version, and still can't uncook the game, exception breakpoint .

I'm using an older modkit with modkitchen, and for some reason, it always fails to uncook.

Any tips?

Never mind, modkit doesn't like capital letters.

Python's Tkinter seems fair to use..might be easier. Python's already way easier to work with than .NET or any other dev/scripting tool so maybe give that a try? I've played around with Python but for computer network management not GUI design & can say it's fast to grasp.

This is so great ^_^
Thank you for the fixes @Marcin Momot and team!
:happy2:

Textures work beautifully!

So...has anyone been able to export a rigged mesh into Blender with this? I tried, but even with the .dae workaround the bones are always missing

Yeap, although you still need to mess around with another tool - > http://forums.cdprojektred.com/foru...ction-of-tools-you-need?p=6871090#post6871090

I already tried that, but even with that the bones were missing in the imported .dae (at least for a mesh uncooked and exported with the new modkit). So my question still stands: Can anybody confirm that it is possible to export a working rigged mesh into Blender with the new modkit?
