plantas grandes y planas

Hey! I add a Blender file with my lego parts (without LEGO textures). I exported the same model from Mecabricks (.zmb😆 to get the textures. I installed the Blender lite add-on, so I imported my .zmbx file into Blender, and then I sized down the pieces to match to the existing ones. But since then, the zoom is locked, I can't zoom enough to see my pieces, as I used to do before. Anyone can help me with this?

la minifigura esta bien

Hey! I imported a model in Blender the addon, but now some of my pieces are glowing (like the hair, head and hand of my figure). Did someone already have this problem? How to solve it?

hello all,

new to mecabricks, VERY COOL SITE!

I am working on a new video project, and d/l and installed the free add-on for blender.

after grabbing a couple minifig models (.zmb😆 and importing them into blender, it appears the textures of the models are missing. is this a blender/mecabricks setting or a limitation on the free add-on?

cheers,

Blender only displays textures in render mode, not in solid mode.
The free add-on also only supports the Cycles renderer. Eevee may kinda work depending on your hardware.

thanx for the quick reply @scrubs,

I think that I'm in render mode (still learning), since I have not been using blender that long, and still no textures. I have my GPU selected under settings.

I think I'm doing it correctly, at least according to youtube. 😃

do I need to get the other add-ons to get the minifigure textures (faces, clothes, etc) to display in blender? for a test, I'm trying to export the logo minifigure and import that into blender.

thanx

I have question, i can't seem to get transparent pieces to appear in Blender as transparent. like visors for example

What render engine do you use?

Never mind i figured it out 😃
