Also, is there a way to use a single material for the whole model? Each of the materials uses the same texture so I'm not sure why they're separated. It makes it more of a hassle to create skins.

 

The reason there are four different materials is that the UV-map is not unique, therefore you can only use tileable, repeating textures. By having separate materials you can add more variety by using a different texture for the individual components.

 

If you would rather use a single material, just edit the ASE in notepad and change all of the *BITMAP lines to the same value.

Ok, thanks Orb, the gate is now sorted out. I noticed a bit of a problem with the segment though...it seems like the bottom part of the model is missing? It doesn't show up in the camera view either.

That's how it was modelled, there is no bottom half to those rings. It seems to work out OK if you put it on the floor, just means that the fence is shorter than the gate but this doesn't look too bad in practice (makes the gate stand out).

      I tried to upscale the TDM logo video. First try:

      briefing_video.mp4 You can test it ingame by making a copy of the core tdm_gui.mtr and place it in your-tdm-root/materials/ , then edit line 249 of that file into the location where you placed the new briefing.mp4 file.
      What I did was I extracted all the image files, then used Upscayl to upscale the images using General photo (Real-Esrgan) upscale setting and then turn it back into a video.
      I might have to crop it a bit, the logo looks smaller on screen (or maybe it's actually better this way?). My video editor turned it into a 16:9 video, which I think overal looks better than 1:1 video of original.

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )
