edge hardness in bfxm/xmesh

Need help testing contributed art or code or having trouble getting your newest additions into game compatible format? Confused by changes to data formats? Reading through source and wondering what the developers were thinking when they wrote something? Need "how-to" style guidance for messing with VS internals? This is probably the right forum.

edge hardness in bfxm/xmesh

Post by esgaroth »

A question to the modellers: when I make my models I usually make some edges hard and some soft in wings. However, when I export the model to xmesh or convert it to bfxm this information seems to get lost and all my edges are soft, leading to very "organic" models. E.g., my Antares class freighter (here in wings) Image looks quite different after converting to bfxm and insertion in vegastrike Image.
Any way how to change/avoid this ?
