[Question] OBJ to M2 coverter issues

[shekelcollector]

Well, my main issue is making it work, really.
It started nagging me with this


Somebody then linked me one that's an UI, but it doesn't seem to work either. Filled it out all correctly, but it doesn't make my m2 file appear. Blinks with a cmd window and nothing after. I managed to catch the error's message, which said something about my obj file causing an error. Which is strange, because I exported it exactly as told.

[Alastor]

Error says exactly whats problem objtom2.exe is not recognized as an internal or external command
so if you would read this line by some miracle or mistake you could may find that your Win doenst know that command which means that you dont have convertor in path where you are executing command or its not in PATH itself one of those ...

[shekelcollector]

Well, that answer didn't make much sense, but I managed to make the converter to work. However, the error with obj still persists. Apparently, it's the same one I got with the UI version.



By the way, does M2 even read smooth normals?

[Alastor]

You have wrong exporting option and it has nothing to do with smooth shading

[shekelcollector]

[Alastor]

then you have left floating vertexis / edges

[shekelcollector]

And what should I do in that case, then?

[Alastor]

Delete them

[shekelcollector]

gee

But how do I find the ones that are causing the problem. I looked over the model and it doesn't seem to be the case.

[Alastor]

Then you overstepped 3d grind data limits whats aprox 20k vertexis /-

[shekelcollector]

Doesn't seem to be the problem, too.


Edit: So, I've exported a WoW model and re-exported it in Blender. Didn't edit it or anything. Still the same issue. I also done the same without re-exporting it in Blender. Nope.

Next time i should check what damned sittings you are showing instead of just mentioning you to check it

Since this is correct

That is what I got from the forums.

[shekelcollector]

Nope. Tried this too and it won't work.

I am having these same issues. All of my setttings or correct, but I cannot get any models to show up, and I am getting the same parsing errors.
