[SD/Modeling] Model Repair

Status
Not open for further replies.
As shown in the figure, this black lightning model is normal during the day, and at night there will be such a blue screen box. It seems that I feel too uncomfortable. This box is also displayed in the model editor. Please fix it so that this model doesn't appear to have a blue screen.

Try this one. Apparently the modulate function is including DNC light color before computing alpha channel by inverse color. Solved by Unshaded flag.

Edit: apparently the model editor that I used messed up the model from opening and saving it. So, the one I attached solved your problem but creates a different problem. I'll see if I can get a fix for that here soon.

Edit 2:

I have now attached an updated version. I removed some fluff nonsense going on in the texture anim with repeated keyframes which my code did not properly process. This has reduced the file size of the model to 5 KB from 7 KB while not changing it visually, because I removed the nonsense and then used the DontInterp mode of interpolation which looked like it was probably the artist's original design intention anyway.

Can you show a picture of the problem? I was looking at the old/new models side by side and didn't see it. But I probably overlooked something
The size of the lightning may be the reason why I moved the camera. It is now the model that the white lines are not visible until evening. However, as long as this model solves the blue screen problem, I am satisfied.I have encountered such a blue screen model again. In the game, when time comes to night, the black lightning ball will have blue squares.
