Eoul Derryth Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 I'm attempting to create a full mesh avatar, but I'm having some problems getting the model to import correctly to SL. I'm using Maya 2010, and I've tried exporting with both OpenCollada and FBX_DAE with the same result. Upon import, the mesh fails to remain bound to the skeleton.

Eoul Derryth Posted September 23, 2011 Author Share Posted September 23, 2011 It should also be noted that I've attempted to upload using the SL viewer and Kirsten's viewer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoul Derryth Posted September 26, 2011 Author Share Posted September 26, 2011 Problem solved, and was so very simple I overlooked it. Wanted to post the solution here in case someone else had the same problem. When importing something, like I did with the skeleton, Maya "helpfully" renames all components with a prefix of the name of the file it came from, so for me "mPelvis" was renamed to "Skeleton:mPelvis." Eliminating the inserted prefixes from the bone names fixed the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
