I have looked over all the tutorials and cannot find what I am looking for.
I am trying to take a ring for the left hand and mirror it for the right hand. Here are the steps I have been taking. Sometimes it works great and sometimes it does not.
In S4S 3.2.1.7 (Star):
1. Create 3D Mesh (under CAS)
2. Choose the ring I want to switch from left to right. (It is a CC ring from another creator)
3. From the Meshes tab I have LOD 0 selected and choose Export Mesh. And give it a name like Ring1-0 that way I know it is LOD 0.
In Blender 4.1
1. Open the file.
2. Select the mesh by clicking on "s4studio_mesh_1" on the right side of the screen under Scene Collection.
3. On the bottom of the screen above the playback bar, I choose Object, Mirror, X Local. (This switches the ring to the right hand.)
4. I choose File, Save. And then Close Blender.
** Note ** The ring appears on the right hand perfectly with all the textures in place and in the correct spot.
In S4S 3.2.1.7 (Star):
1. I import the mesh into S4S.
Here is where it breaks. The ring appears in the correct spot, but the textures are gone. Even if I import the texture it does not come back. There is obviously something I am doing wrong.
Can someone please point me to the correct tutorial to follow to fix this? I tried to follow the tutorial on creating the earrings, but got lost at the Append step because my Blender would not let me append anything.
Thank you in advance. I appreciate any help that is offered.
