'No Sculpt object selected' message in Blender

[Guest]

Hi - I hope you can help!  I am new to Blender but have managed to create and import a couple of sculpt maps (I'm very proud!).  However now everytime I try to bake an object a warning appears saying that no sculpt object is selected.

I select the object in Object Mode, then go to Edit Mode.  The UV/Image screen shows the vertices of the object but I am still unable to bake. 

I have tried creating a new image - again the vertices appear but unable to bake.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?  I use Blender 2.62 and Primstar 2.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Check to be sure that you don't have another object in your work area -- maybe left over from an earlier experiment that you forgot to delete.  I did that once and tore my hair out trying to work around that same error message.

Thank you for your reply - unfortunately it seems to be happening on each new project.  I just don't understand what has changed since my successful attempts.....I'll keep trying!

Thanks again

There are some excelent tutorials for using Blender and the Primstar add ons.  See the links under the "tutorial" tab near the top of the page.  http://blog.machinimatrix.org/primstar-2/

Also, a good, active "blender primstar/jass" support group in-world.

My guess about your message is that suclpties are very fussy, the mesh neesd to have exactly the correct number of vertices or they cannot be baked into a sculptie.

Thanks for your replies.  Everything is now fine again - I have no idea why! I went back to basics and the problems seems to have cleared.  No stopping me now......

 

Thanks again from a happy builder!
