Voxel and HVA problems

warrior002.the.official

Hello evreybody

The problem is the following:

I've made a battle armor with legs for the walking animation. That's fine. But when I open up HVA editor I get a very messy something. I tried to replace the sections in different orders but still nothing. Only one of them is fine and the turret.

What I did:
-Turret (torso) first, working
-A new body with legs, separate sections (6-8 parts of legs if I remember right + main body)
-Because it was not working, I tried to make the left thigh as the main body, it didn't work either.
-Then I tried the VXLSEIII 1.38's Section settings again. Still nothing.

I hope It was detailed enough... I started making this thing 4 weeks ago maybe, now, I am asking for help. I wonder how easy it is to solve and maybe I'm the stupid one.

Also I'm attaching the voxel itself if it can help (But I'm not sure about releasing it later).

The vxl's header was a mess, the section indexes were all over the place & the "Unknown" section weren't using the default settings? The main problems seems to be the HVA though which has become corrupted, HVA Builder crashes when I try to edit it & HVA Editor just refuses to open it. Here is the cleaned up vxl, make a new fresh HVA file for it & realign the parts.

TBH I wouldn't recommend making a vxl mech though, it's very hard to get all the different leg sections to render in the correct order. It's much better to make a 3D model & render it as a shp.

Thank you so much!

I would like to create 3D models to work with them but I'm a very beginner at it. I'm learning Blender nowadays with a little progress, so I must rely on voxel editors. Also I'm not too good at SHPs.

By the way, thank you again, now I know what I will have to pay attention to in the future.

One thing to note would be that shp units won't be able to "tilt" like vxl on slope, as they are just animations, so it is still up to you, which one would you like to choose.
