BF MeshViewSampler

Post by dnamro »

The BF MeshViewSampler is included in the latest 3ds max bf2 plugin/scripts

bin/extern/BfMeshViewSampler.exe

It is a console app to create Lightmap Samples. It appears to be created based on Remdul's public source code for his BFMeshViewer tool.

Who created it and is the source code available?

I am wondering if it could be used with the Python script to read the BF Mesh in order to batch generate LM samples:

looking at the Max script, it appears that Samples are created multiple times, first once for each LOD, then another one with the UVChannel number.

Command line options that I can find in the max script are:

-geom (Currently only 1 is suported)
-lod (lodI value)
-channel (UV Channel, 5 is the default)
-padding (6 is the default)

The following are lightmap sizes, which must be a power of 2. If width is set to "auto" then width and height are auto generated from the object info.
-width
-height

Object file path to .staticmesh file

It would be helpful to have access to the source code for BF MeshViewSampler
